Ernie Ball EB-1640

Ernie Ball Nickel Wound Single Bass String .040 (1.02 mm) – clear attack and punch with classic Slinky feel

When a string dies in the middle of rehearsal or on the way to a gig, the last thing you want is to buy a whole set. This Ernie Ball Nickel Wound single string in .040 (1.02 mm) gives you a fast, precise replacement, so your bass is back in action straight away. You get a defined attack, plenty of punch and clarity that cuts through the mix without sounding harsh—a familiar, playable “Slinky” feel that makes it easy to keep both groove and dynamics under control.

The construction is made to feel and sound right from the first note: a nickel-plated steel roundwound wrap that provides the characteristic slightly textured feel under your fingers and a balanced all-round tone. Inside is a tin-plated hex steel core that locks the winding firmly in place, so the string holds its shape, intonation and tuning when you play hard, slap, pluck or run long sets.

The string is supplied as a single/loose string with a ball end, so it fits directly into a standard electric bass bridge. Perfect if you want to match a specific string in your current setup, build your own custom gauges, or simply keep a reliable backup in your gig bag—without paying for more than you need.
