Ernie Ball 2591 Flatwound Slinky Electric Guitars

Ernie Ball 2591 Flatwound Slinky electric guitar strings – warm tone and almost silent fingerstyle playing

Ernie Ball 2591 Flatwound Slinky is a set of electric guitar strings for players who want a rounded, warm and controlled tone without the annoying finger and slide noise. The flat winding provides a noticeably smoother surface than standard roundwounds, giving you a quieter take in the studio, cleaner clean tones and a more “polished” playing experience, especially when moving up and down the fretboard.

The core is a hex core steel core for a stable feel and reliable intonation, while the wound strings use a flatwound construction with flat ribbon wire winding, which feels dense, smooth and almost silky under the fingers. The result is a full, warm sound with clear definition that sits nicely in the mix without excessive zing and sharp overtones, while also minimising “squeak”.

This set is especially well suited to jazz, traditional styles, clean playing and generally anything where low string noise and a rounded tone are an advantage. Gauges are .010–.046 (0,25–1,17 mm), offering a familiar tension for many electric guitarists, but remember that flatwounds typically feel a bit stiffer/tighter than roundwounds in the same gauge. The strings are supplied in protective packaging that helps keep them fresh against air and moisture.
