Ernie Ball Power Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Bass Strings – 55–110 Gauge
Ernie Ball Power Slinky Bass strings are the ultimate choice for players who demand a massive, aggressive low-end and maximum punch. These strings provide a significantly higher tension than standard sets, making them perfect for rock, metal, and players who prefer a stiffer feel for heavy-handed plucking or drop-tuning without the "floppy" string response.
Key Performance Features
- High-Output Punch: The heavy gauge combination delivers a powerful, driving tone that cuts through the loudest high-gain mixes with ease.
- Nickel Plated Steel Wrap: Wound with nickel-plated steel wire, offering a bright, high-energy top end balanced by deep, rich fundamentals.
- Superior Core Strength: Built on a tin-plated hex-shaped steel core, ensuring incredible durability and tuning stability under high-tension playing styles.
- Classic Slinky Feel: Despite the heavier gauge, these strings maintain the legendary "Slinky" playability, providing a smooth surface and consistent response across all four strings.
- Element Shield Packaging: Sealed in airtight foil packaging to eliminate moisture and prevent corrosion, guaranteeing your strings are factory-fresh when you open them.
