Description

Ernie Ball Not Even Slinky Guitar Strings 12-56 are the go to set for electric guitarists who want thicker feel, bigger output and rock solid tuning. With a bold voice and extra tension, they are ideal for players who hit hard, prefer a firm response under the fingers and like to explore lower tunings such as Drop D or D standard. Whether you play riff driven rock, metal or blues with authority, this 12 to 56 gauge set delivers the punch, sustain and control that lighter strings simply cannot match. It is a confident choice for progressing players and seasoned performers who need reliable stability night after night.

Features

Heavy gauge for lower tunings

The 12 to 56 Not Even Slinky set offers higher tension that keeps notes focused and in tune when you tune down. Chords stay tight and single notes retain clarity, so you can play with authority in Drop D or D standard without the flabby feel of lighter gauges.

Nickel plated steel, classic Slinky tone

Wound strings use nickel plated steel for a balanced, musical sound with lively mids, crisp highs and a solid low end. The combination works across high gain and clean rigs, sitting well in a mix while still feeling smooth under the fingers.

Hex core stability and long lasting performance

A hex shaped steel core locks the wrap wire in place for improved tuning stability, consistent intonation and a responsive attack. The strong core design helps the set withstand heavy picking and frequent bends while maintaining a dependable feel over time.

Plain 24p G for snap and precise bends

The plain 24 gauge G string delivers a punchy attack and accurate pitch control, making bends feel direct and predictable. It helps leads cut through while rhythm parts remain articulate, especially in heavier styles.

Element Shield packaging for freshness

Each set is sealed to keep out moisture and corrosion so the strings reach you factory fresh. This preserves the clear tone and smooth feel from the first tune up and reduces premature dullness between rehearsals and shows.
