Description
This .018 gauge plain string comes from Ernie Ball’s M-Steel line, engineered around a specially tempered high carbon steel wire that’s tin plated for long-lasting performance and resistance to fatigue under repeated bending and picking.
- Specially tempered, tin plated high carbon steel wire for durability
- Nickel plated ball end crafted from precision brass wire rod
- Patented RPS steel wrap wire around the ball end twist to reduce slippage and breakage
- Improved tuning stability compared to conventional plain strings
What sets M-Steel plain strings apart is the reinforced ball end construction. Rather than relying on a standard wrap, Ernie Ball applies a patented steel wrap wire directly at the ball end twist, which helps the string grip securely and hold pitch more reliably over time. Combined with the tempered steel core, this gives players a plain string that resists breakage even during aggressive playing styles.
Whether you’re restringing a full set or replacing a single broken string, this .018 M-Steel plain string is a straightforward way to bring added toughness and consistency to your electric guitar’s tone and feel.
