Description
Inspired by the first generation of electric bass strings, Gibson Flatwound Electric Bass Strings start with a hex-shaped, tinned steel core for strength and are finished with a flat, stainless steel ribbon wrap. This construction leaves very little space in between wraps, producing a rich, mellow tone while reducing noise from finger movement. Whether you’re chasing the Motown sound or want a smoother feel across the fretboard with less finger squeak, these strings help build a warm, full bass foundation.
- The hex-shaped, tinned steel core provides durability, while the flat, stainless steel ribbon wrap brings the timeless warm voice of vintage Gibson basses into the present
- Precision-polished for authentic flatwound feel and sound
- Inspired by the feel and tone of upright gut strings, but with the added power and clarity of stainless steel
