Description
If you’re running a 35″ or longer scale 5-string, you already know the frustration of strings that come up short at the headstock. The Super Long Scale Slinky set solves that problem while giving you the punchy, articulate voice Ernie Ball is known for. Round-wound construction keeps the low B tight and defined instead of flabby, and the top strings stay bright and cutting so your lines sit clearly in the mix, whether you’re slapping, fingerstyle, or digging in with a pick.
Ernie Ball makes these in Coachella Valley, Southern California, using fresh raw materials sourced specifically for consistent tension and long shelf life — strings that feel dead on arrival are a nonexistent problem here. The 2850 gauge set runs .045 .065 .085 .105 .130, a balanced spread that gives low-end weight without turning your B string into mush.
This listing gets you two full sets, so you’re covered for a string change now and a backup for down the line — handy for gigging players who don’t want to be caught off guard mid-tour or before a session.
