Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Zippy Slinky is a .007–.036 nickel-wound electric guitar set made for a very low-tension feel. Ernie Ball describes it as the lowest-tension set in its range, with gauges intended to make wide bends and fast lead work easier to execute. The strings use nickel-plated steel wire around tin-plated hex-shaped steel cores. Each factory-sealed set comes in Element Shield packaging, whose airtight barrier is designed to prevent oxidation before opening.
