Ernie Ball Mammoth Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings 12-62 Gauge
Take your low-tuned guitar playing to the next level with Ernie Ball Mammoth Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings, designed specifically for players who demand serious low-end power, increased tension and a thick, defined tone.
With an ultra-heavy 12-62 gauge set and a wound G string, Mammoth Slinkys are Ernie Ball's heaviest Slinky set and are particularly well suited to Drop A, Drop B and C Standard tuning. They deliver the extra tension needed to keep strings feeling tight and controlled when tuning down, while providing the powerful low end and definition required for heavy riffs, chunky chords and modern metal styles.
The wound strings feature nickel-plated steel wrap wire wound around tin-plated, high-carbon steel hex cores, while the plain strings are made from specially tempered, tin-plated high-carbon steel. This proven construction delivers the bright, balanced tone and familiar Slinky feel that Ernie Ball strings have been known for for decades.

Built for Low Tunings and Heavy Playing
Standard-gauge strings can become loose and lack definition when you tune down significantly. Mammoth Slinkys tackle that problem with their substantial 12-62 gauge configuration, giving your guitar a firmer feel and helping maintain clarity and control at lower pitches.
Whether you're playing crushing metal riffs, extended-range-inspired low tunings, heavy chord work or simply prefer a substantial string under your fingers, Ernie Ball Mammoth Slinky strings provide the tension and tonal weight to match.
If you play in Drop A, Drop B or C Standard and want your strings to stay tight, controlled and powerful, Mammoth Slinkys are made for the job.
