The charm of flatwound with a more contemporary response
The Ernie Ball Flatwound Cobalt combine the comfort of flatwound strings with a more modern signature: clearer attack, present mids, and better articulation, without losing the "silky" feel sought after in this type of string. In the Extra Slinky version and 40-95 gauge, this set is ideal if you want to retain the smoothness of flatwounds while keeping a lively, dynamic sound that stands out easily in a mix.Technical specifications
