Ernie Ball 2806 Flatwound Stainless Steel Bass 45-100

Ernie Ball 2806 Flatwound Stainless Steel Bass – smooth feel with clear definition

Switch to a quieter, more controlled bass feel without losing definition. Ernie Ball 2806 is a set of flatwound strings for electric bass that delivers low finger noise, silky-smooth position shifts and a tone that sits clearly in the mix – perfect when you want classic flatwound smoothness while still retaining bite and articulation.

The flat, polished ribbon wrap feels almost “buttery” under your fingers and makes slides and sustained notes more elegant, especially in the studio and live, where unwanted friction noise is quickly revealed. The stainless steel winding adds a more immediate attack and a clearer top end than many traditional, very dark flatwounds, while the material typically stays stable and defined for longer. The hex core provides a firm, stable feel and supports both intonation and tuning stability, so the bass feels solid and precise.

The set is long scale and typically fits 34" electric basses (standard EADG) with ball ends. The gauge is 45–100 (E: 2.54 mm, A: 2.03 mm, D: 1.65 mm, G: 1.14 mm), making it a versatile “standard” gauge for many playing styles. If you’re switching from roundwounds to flatwounds, the bass may feel different in tension and response, so a minor setup (intonation and/or truss rod) may be necessary. If you have string-through-body construction or an extra-long scale, make sure the full thickness doesn’t end up awkwardly over the nut or tuner post.
