Experience the next generation of bass guitar strings with the Hellborg Round Wound Series, crafted in collaboration with world-renowned bassist Jonas Hellborg. These strings stand at the cutting edge of bass string technology, offering an unrivaled playing experience thanks to Dogal’s expertise in producing bowed instrument strings. As the world’s first electric bass strings made with a ‘Multicore,’ they deliver unparalleled clarity and richness. Each string is carefully handcrafted with meticulous precision to ensure a smooth and flawless surface, enhancing your playing comfort while offering a rich, harmonically accurate tone that stays perfectly in tune.

Engineered with a unique combination of specialty alloys, Hellborg strings bring every frequency to life—from deep, resonant lows to crisp, articulate highs—all without compromising the crucial midrange tones. The result? A precise, balanced sound that enhances your bass’s natural voice, with stable intonation across every fret and string.

These strings are the product of over three years of close collaboration between Dogal and Jonas Hellborg, a visionary known for his innovative approach to music and instrument design. Hellborg understood that bass strings require a unique structure, distinct from the standard guitar strings, which tend to become stiff and lose tonal clarity at larger diameters. The Hellborg strings address this issue, offering superior flexibility, clarity, and resonance across the entire tonal spectrum. Whether you’re performing on stage or recording in the studio, these strings will elevate your playing to new heights, delivering a sound that is as innovative as the artist they are named after.

“Bass strings have always been made as larger versions of guitar strings when in reality they need very different qualities. As the diameter of guitar strings increases, they become very stiff with less intonation and clarity of tone so, through careful and accurate research and development, drawing on Dogal’s expertise in making strings especially for violin and cello, Hellborg strings were born” – Jonas Hellborg
