Description
Cobalt alloy marked a genuine shift in string design, and the Not Even Slinky set (2726) puts that technology to work in an unconventional gauge layout. Rather than a straight progression, this set pairs a lighter .012 top with a jump to a heavier .056 low string, giving players extra punch on the bottom end without sacrificing the flexibility of thinner treble strings for bending and vibrato.
The magnetic properties of cobalt allow these strings to interact more strongly with your pickups than traditional nickel or steel alloys, translating to a more responsive signal and a wider dynamic range from pick attack to sustain. Expect pronounced low-end weight, articulate highs, and a fuller harmonic spread across the whole set, whether you’re playing clean or driving an amp hard.
Beyond tone, Cobalt strings have a notably smooth, silky feel under the fingers, which reduces friction during bends and slides while still holding tuning stability. This listing includes 12 individual packs, making it a practical option for players who restring often or want to keep a stock on hand.
