ERNIE BALL 2863 Sets - Tapewound long scale 60-115
Ernie Ball Bass Tapewound strings are designed for bassists seeking a warm, deep, and mellow tone paired with exceptional playing comfort. Engineered to reproduce the subtle, organic character of a vintage upright bass, these strings offer an ideal alternative to traditional steel strings.
Thanks to a tinned-steel core, stainless-steel winding, and a polished black nylon wrap, these tapewound strings deliver a dark, smooth, musical tone while providing a soft, silky feel under the fingers. This wrap significantly reduces sliding noise, making it a top choice for fingerstyle playing, studio work, and musical contexts that demand precision and warmth.
Designed for comfort and musicality, these strings are a perfect fit for jazz, soul, reggae, folk, pop, or ambient styles, as well as for bassists looking to mellow the overly bright character of their instrument.
