Ernie Ball John Mayer Silver Slinky Signature Electric Guitar Strings

Experience the signature tone of Grammy-winning guitarist John Mayer with Ernie Ball Silver Slinky Signature Strings. Developed in collaboration with one of the world's most influential guitarists, these custom-gauge strings deliver the perfect balance of playability, tone, and sustain that John Mayer demands for his blues-rock sound.

John Mayer's Custom Gauge Formula

The Silver Slinky gauge (10.5-47) sits perfectly between Regular Slinky and Super Slinky, offering slightly more tension than 10s for better tuning stability and fuller tone, while remaining easier to bend than traditional 11s. This unique gauge combination was specifically chosen by John Mayer to achieve his signature sound across his Stratocasters and PRS guitars.
