Bright, loud but a bit lack of midtone and warmth
These strings sound brighter than the regular slinky's, louder and a bit more aggresive. I tought those strings would be my partner for a more rock/metal style I play . First I was happy with their sound and they last a bit longer than the regular slinky's but after a while noticed I missed the warmth that the regular slinky's gave me so I switched back to the regular ones

Premium Strings for Premium-Guitars...
I normally play the Standard Ernie Ball Regular Slinky Strings - but last year I bought a LTD ST-1 (which is my Main-Guitar now) and so I thought of testing some other strings. The Ernie Ball Cobalt Strings are packaged like the other Ernie Ball Strings - everything fine! After putting the strings on my guitar, the first audible thing was, that they sound clearer than the Regular Slinky. The Sound out of the Amp confirmed it very well. It's a very clear tone from clean to High-Gain. I think, they are a little bit more stiff - but that's no problem. They really sound great and open! But why just 4/5 Stars? Well, I think 1 big Star goes to the Mojo-Factor... I haven't tried them on my other guitars than the LTD - but as I wrote in the headline, I'm shure, it will give your Premium Guitar a little bit more comfortable playing.

Try it, it can change your life...or not..!
Really nice strings, they can add the 'final touch' to your sound!
It's a nice experience to test them, I usually play regular slinky since a long time, the cobalt are different in many ways so it's difficult to explain. I tried them with different amps systems and sometimes it's very very good, sometimes I still prefere the slinky so, in regard with the price, i will continue with slinky..
So if you are looking for a 'little I don't know what' in your sound maybe you'll find it in these strings which deliver high quality sounds. Try it!

Very good strings
I use these strings as I have an allergy to nickel and these are safe on my skin. They also happen to sound very good, powerful and have a good lifespan.

GREAT FOR STAGE PERFORMANCE
Great sound with high output as promised on the package. Very responsive. Not for long term use but great for recording and live use. Works great with passive pickups. One of the most responsive strings ever.
