Description
Six strings in, dead tone out. This Ernie Ball 2837 set is purpose-built for 6-string bass players who need every register to cut through cleanly, from a growling low B down there to a bright top string that still sings. Round-wound construction keeps the attack snappy and the sustain long, so slap tones pop and fingerstyle lines stay articulate instead of getting muddy.
- Gauges: .020 .030 .042 .054 .074 .090
- Small ball ends (like guitar strings) — not the large ball ends found on standard bass sets, so double-check your bridge/tailpiece fits before ordering
- Round-wound for clarity, punch, and consistent output across all six strings
- Made in Coachella Valley, Southern California
- Single pack, sized for 29 5/8″ scale basses
If your 6-string has been sitting with the same set for months, you already know the drill: dull low end, strings that won’t stay in tune, tone that just sits there flat. Swap in a fresh 2837 pack and feel the difference the moment you tune up — brighter highs, tighter lows, and that snap that makes you want to actually play instead of just noodle. Stock up now while it’s on sale and keep a backup pack on hand, because once you hear a fresh set on a 6-string, going back to dead strings isn’t an option.
