After all, why has it not been used before? Ernie Ball’s Cobalt wrap is in fact a blend of iron and cobalt that delivers a really unique playing experience.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs a standalone element, Cobalt possesses properties that make it great for use in a set of bass strings. First off it is highly magnetic. A feature that Ernie Ball say really makes these strings stand out from the crowd when compared to the common Nickel Wound and Stainless Steel sets.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThese greater magnetic properties mean that these strings will interact with your pickups far more than the sets you typically see on the shelves. In fact, on the back of the outer packaging, Ernie Ball back this up with some graphical evidence of how these strings deliver greater output and frequency response in all areas including the lows, mids and highs and we’d certainly say that you get a bit more punch for your buck here.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThey certainly make for a great all rounder string but we think they’d be a great option if you’re in a metal band or are playing particularly fast runs and need that extra bit of punch from your EQ.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCobalt is naturally stable in the air and does not react with water. In fact, any degradation that does occur takes place over a longer period of time even when it comes into contact with acids such as sweat and grime from our fingers. This means that these strings not only perform straight out of the packet but for a greater period of time too.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePersonally, I’m not a huge fan of that ‘brand new’ string sound. I don’t like anything too jangly or twangy and even for a string with increased output and clarity they didn’t suffer from any of that. Just nice, fresh sounding strings and this remained the case even after 4-5 weeks of consistent playing.
