Description
Cobalt is Ernie Ball’s answer to guitarists who want more from their pickups without sacrificing feel. The alloy forms a tighter magnetic bond with pickup polepieces than traditional nickel or steel wraps, which translates to a wider dynamic range: lows hit harder, highs stay articulate, and the harmonic content in between comes through with more detail. Whether you play clean or push into overdrive, the extra output and clarity register at the amp.
The Extra Slinky gauge set (.008, .011, .014, .022, .030, .038) keeps tension light, favoring players who bend often, use lower tunings, or simply prefer a softer feel under the fingers. Cobalt’s construction also has a smoother, silkier surface than typical string alloys, so slides and bends feel more fluid across the fretboard.
This listing includes six individual sets, making it a practical option for players who restring often, gig regularly, or want backups on hand without reordering every few weeks.
