GHS Coated Boomers CB-GBL Light .010-.046 Electric Guitar set of strings for electric guitar

General

With the GHS Coated Boomers CB-GBL, you’re getting a complete set of strings for your 6-string electric guitar. This is the light gauge (.010-.046): a great all-round gauge that allows you to play smoothly, whilst still retaining enough body for tight rhythm work and controlled leads. As it’s a full set, you can replace all the strings in one go, and your guitar will immediately feel fresh and responsive again. Handy for guitarists who want a familiar gauge, with the added benefit of a coating.

Coating for a longer-lasting fresh feel

The CB-GBL strings feature a coating. This layer helps to keep the feel and tone consistent for longer, especially if you play a lot or tend to suffer from dull strings quickly. The core is made of nickel-plated steel: a popular choice for electric guitar due to its balanced response and familiar playing feel. Combined with the roundwound winding, this gives you a clear attack and definition, ensuring chords remain crisp and single notes cut through the mix effectively.

Round core and made in the USA

For this set, GHS has opted for a round core. This contributes to a smoother feel and comfortable string tension, which you’ll notice most when bending strings and using vibrato. The set comprises .010”, .013”, .017”, .026”, .036” and .046”, giving you a balanced mix of playing comfort and stability. What’s more, these Coated Boomers are made in the USA, for those who prefer strings with a clear provenance and consistent quality.
