An M-Steel set designed for power and expressiveness
The Ernie Ball M-Steel strings bring to the electric guitar world a super alloy used in aerospace and defense: Maraging steel. The result: a more expressive response, better stability, and an immediate feeling of precision under the fingers. The "Skinny Top Heavy Bottom" set combines comfortable treble strings for bends and lead playing, with tighter bass strings to maintain attack and clear intonation, even when playing loudly. Going further, Ernie Ball announces a winding 60% richer than the Ernie Ball Cobalt series, as well as reinforced winding on the three treble strings at the ball end, with a nickel-treated ball to optimize contact at the bridge.
