Description
If your fingers are tired of roundwound ridges, this Ernie Ball Group IV flatwound set is the fix. Flat stainless steel ribbon wire is wound tight around a hex-shaped, tin-plated steel core, giving you a glassy-smooth surface under your fingers and a mellow, rounded tone that roundwounds just can’t touch. Gauges run .040, .060, .070, .095 — a classic flatwound spread built for players chasing that vintage thump, upright-style growl, or a quieter fretting hand on fretless.
- Wrap wire: Precision-wound stainless steel ribbon for a silky playing feel and warm, old-school tone that sits back in the mix instead of biting.
- Core wire: Tin-plated high carbon steel hex core, built to hold tension and keep your intonation steady set after set.
- Ball end: Machined brass wire rod, cut to precise spec so every string seats cleanly at the bridge, no surprises.
Fresh flatwounds change the whole conversation between you and your bass — less finger squeak, less zing, more low-end woof and sustain that ages gracefully instead of dying fast. Whether you’re restringing a P-bass for that Motown pocket or just want a break from bright, aggressive rounds, this set delivers the smooth, dark, dependable low end flatwound players keep coming back to. Stock up now — a spare set in the drawer means you’re never stuck with dead strings on gig night.
