A classic for long scale playing, from studio to stage
The Ernie Ball Slinky Nickel Wound Long Scale 80 strings are among those chosen to get straight to the point: a familiar feel, immediate response, and a musical output that fits equally well in a modern mix or with a more vintage amp. Thanks to their hexagonal core and nickel winding, they offer a stable playing sensation under the fingers and dynamics that follow your right hand, whether you play fingerstyle, with a pick, tight riffs, or rounder lines. Designed for long scale instruments, they provide an excellent balance between definition, sustain, and comfort, while maintaining the expected tonal signature of a quality nickel string set.
