Ernie Ball 2802 Flatwound Stainless Steel Bass 55-110 – extra heavy flats with classic thump and low noise
Ernie Ball 2802 is a 4-string flatwound stainless steel set for electric bass, made for players who want high tension, a solid feel under the fingers, and a tone with a clear fundamental. The flatwound construction delivers a noticeably quieter experience than roundwounds, giving you a cleaner take in the studio and less “scrape” when you shift positions.
The flat ribbon wrap in rust- and corrosion-resistant stainless steel feels smooth and “silky” to play, and the sound leans towards a classic, full low end with a punchy attack and a warm vintage “thump” rather than modern overtone “zing”. The hex core provides stability and a firm, controlled response that particularly rewards a hard attack with a pick or heavy fingerstyle.
The set is made for long-scale electric basses (typically 34” scale, approx. 86.4 cm), and the extra heavy gauges (.055–.110) are a strong choice for lower tunings or for players who often find lighter strings feel too loose. Please note that the higher tension may require a truss rod adjustment when switching from a lighter set, and that the thick .110 E string may in some cases require checking or slight adjustment of the nut slots to prevent the string from binding. After a short break-in period, the tone will typically settle and become even darker and thumpier.
