Mick Ralphs' Strings

Hide incorrect submissions

Mentioned in 2001 Vintage Guitar interview as his strings of choice.

Ernie Ball Regular Slinkys, .010-.036 [sic], and Herco gold picks. I like that rough grip they have. When I play, I turn them around and use the round side so I can get harmonics. I grip so there’s only a little bit of plastic showing, and use the rough edge to scrape the strings.
