Great for lead. - Previously I had Daddario EJ15's on my guitar. I play a mix of acoustic and blues type lead. As soon as I had these tuned up, I immediately regretted putting them on. I played a couple of chords and it sounded like a whole chunk of tone was missing, a bit like trying to listen to Drum n Bass through pocket speakers. Then I played a few lines of lead, and damn they are good. Feels like playing an electric. Playing notes around 12 fret upwards on the high E string produces a great tone, a lot warmer (if not quieter) than the other strings. They are super easy to bend and the sound and feel of individual strings is great. Chords still sound awefull though! But since these are blues string designed to be thin for the style of play, you kinda would expect that. My advice is buy these if you play a lot more lead/blues style. If you play a lot of chords, these just won't do unless you have a second acoustic you can keep these on. Over all, the definitely do the job they are designed for. Review: Rock & Blues Guage Review - As someone that prefers playing electric guitar and dislikes the limitations of an acoustic guitar, the Rock and Blues strings are a nice compromise. The high strings are very light for extremely easy to bend and the bass strings are Medium/Heavy for meaty power chords. I'd go as far to say that bending with these strings is as easy as it is on a strat, which is is saying something. The only downside is that chords don't have that sparkle and twang which you'd normally associate with an acoustic so if you're into playing traditional acoustic guitar songs then avoid these at all cost. They also have less volume and sound noticeably thinner overall. In summary, if you're into soloing or playing licks and want to practice on your acoustic as opposed to your electric, give these a whirl, they're extremely nice to play. If, however, you prefer the traditional sound of an acoustic and play a lot of chords then you might want to consider the light or medium gauges, or higher. I'll get the extra light/light strings next time and see which one fits the perfect middle ground. Hope this helps with making your decision. ## Features - Bright, balanced tone with excellent projection and clarity. - Ernie Ball’s Rock and Blues 10-52 gauge includes a plain G-string, similar to most electric string sets, making this set optimal for playing leads on acoustic guitar. - Wound strings are 80 percent copper, 20 percent zinc wire wrapped around high-carbon steel core wire. - Crafted in the USA with the freshest and finest materials. - Element Shield packaging ensures your strings stay as fresh as they were the day they were made. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002DV6TO | | Best Sellers Rank | 7 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 3 in Guitar Strings | | Body Material Type | Bronze | | Brand Name | Ernie Ball | | Coating Description | uncoated | | Colour | Rock & Blues | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (3,676) | | Finish Type | Uncoated | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00749699120087 | | Included Components | Guitar Strings (10-52 gauge) | | Instrument | Acoustic Guitar | | Item Type Name | Acoustic Strings | | Manufacturer | Ernie Ball | | Manufacturer Part Number | P02008 | | Material Type | Bronze | | Model Name | Rock & Blues (10-52) | | Model Number | P02008 | | Product Warranty | None. | | Recommended Uses For Product | Acoustic Guitar | | Set Name | Ernie Ball Earthwood Rock and Blues | | Sound Profile | Bright and Balanced | | String Gauge | [.010, .013, .017, .030, .042, .052] | | String Material Type | Bronze | | UPC | 749699120087 | | Unit Count | 1 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Ernie Ball - **Colour:** Rock & Blues - **Instrument:** Acoustic Guitar - **String gauge:** [.010, .013, .017, .030, .042, .052] - **String material type:** Bronze ## Images ![Earthwood Rock and Blues w/Plain G 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings - 10-52 Gauge - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ABSIL-d7L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No good for Chords.
