The Ernie Ball Cobalt Power Slinky is a set of electric guitar strings built around a proprietary iron/cobalt alloy — a material that interacts more strongly with your pickups' magnets than traditional nickel-plated steel. The result is a noticeably hotter signal, a wider dynamic range, and a more articulate response across the whole frequency spectrum. These are a solid pick if you're playing with heavier gauge strings and want something that keeps up with the output.
The .011–.048 gauge makes these a natural fit for players who prefer a slightly heavier feel — whether that's for lower tunings, big rhythm playing, or just more tension under the pick. The cobalt winding is also designed for flexibility, so despite the gauge, string bending stays comfortable. All Ernie Ball strings are precision manufactured and made in the USA.
Product Features:
- Cobalt/iron alloy construction for stronger magnetic response with pickups

- Individual gauges: .011, .014, .018, .028, .038, .048
