A coating so thin that they renamed it a ‘treatment’. The Everly Cleartone treatment betters all of the brightness, aliveness, brilliance, resonance and sustain of premium guitar strings while also lasting up to 5x longer.

These strings are crazy good, like, unbelievably exceptional. You’d have no chance of telling that they were coated until a month later when you’d notice that they still sound bright and in-tune.

Actually, did you know that Everly hold two patents for a coating that makes the strings louder and sustain longer than regular strings!

A word from Everly (Cleartone):
"Cleartone Bass Strings may have a coating of only one micron, but it's more durable than coatings thousands of times its thickness. It won't flake off with hard playing, nor will it feel slick or slippery to your touch. Super-high tension winding over a hex-core is used to maintain tuning consistency throughout your performance. EMP Treatment is then applied to all the strings (including plain strings) to ensure longest tonal life without compromises. Cleartone Strings feel and sound like a regular set, but designed to last 3-5 times longer."

SKU: CT6440

Are these strings the correct length for my bass?

We insist that players use the measurement of ball-end (anchor) to top nut of their current set of strings.  This measurement is more accurate than scale length as it takes into account through-body stringing, and more complex or alternative bridges.  In many cases the set of strings required will be longer than the bass’s stated scale length!  Use these references:

If ball-end-to-nut length is:

Up to 32” choose Short Scale

32”-34” choose Medium Scale

34”-36” choose Long Scale

36”-38” choose Extra/Super Long Scale

If you have a bass where you cannot see the ball-end i.e. a thru-body bass, you will have to measure your string once it has been removed. Before removing the string be sure to make a mark on the string with a permanent marker just behind the nut so you know where to measure to. Then once you’ve taken it off the bass, you can measure from the ball-end to the mark you made on the string.
