Description

Ernie Ball P02727 Cobalt Beefy Slinky electric guitar strings 11-54 are perfect for those who like to detune their instrument to lower tuning combinations. Metal fans worldwide have gravitated towards the Beefy Slinky set to give their guitar the optimal gauge combination for Drop D and Drop C tuning. The Cobalt Series is clearly an improvement on its classic nickel-wound counterpart giving the player increased sustain, clarity and output. In addition, they resist sweat and moisture better and have unmatched flexibility when compared to other nickel wound strings. Cobalt is the most magnetically active string alloy on the planet and attracts the magnets in your pickups more than any other string.

"Ernie Ball Cobalt Strings sound and feel better than anything I've ever played! You have to check these out!" - Slash

All Ernie Ball strings are precision manufactured to the highest standards and the most exacting specs to assure consistency, optimum performance and long life. Made in the USA.

Gauges: 11-15-22p-30-42-54.

      These strings are built to last, have a nice tone to them, and they're very bright and clear. Because of these factors, they're great for metal genres since there's a lot of aggression in the techniques involved, so that difference in resistance from corrosion and abuse that they have over other strings is appreciated.

      Ok strings, but i found the feel was kinda dry.The sound was good, nice and bright,so if you dont care about feel then these are your strings.I recommend D'Addario XL 11-52(good feel and sound).

    • |m| If you shred, buy these!

      If you drop tune buy these. Tuned at AEADF#B I get every tone crisp and clean. Awesome tone for Deathmetal and Deathcore.
