Ernie Ball Bass Tapewound strings are designed for bassists looking for a warm, deep, muffled sound, combined with exceptional playing comfort. Designed to reproduce the subtle, organic character of a vintage double bass, these strings offer an ideal alternative to traditional steel strings.

Thanks to a tin-plated steel core, stainless steel winding and polished black nylon coating, Tapewound strings deliver a dark, smooth and musical sound, while guaranteeing a silky-smooth feel under the fingers. This coating dramatically reduces sliding noise, making them a preferred choice for finger-picking, studio and musical contexts requiring precision and warmth.

Designed for comfort and musicality, these strings are ideal for jazz, soul, reggae, folk, pop or ambient styles, as well as for bassists seeking to soften the overly bright character of their instrument.
