EJ65B Pro-Arte Custom Extruded Baritone Nylon Ukulele Strings
EJ65B Pro-Arte Custom Extruded Baritone Nylon Ukulele Strings are engineered specifically for baritone ukuleles, delivering precise intonation and a tonal balance that suits the instrument’s extended range. Designed to be tuned to the standard D-G-B-E baritone pitch, this set preserves clarity across the fretboard while preserving the warmth unique to nylon strings.
What makes this set stand out
- Treble strings: Pro-Arte Custom Extruded Clear Nylon — the first and second strings use a dedicated extrusion process to deliver exceptionally clean, transparent treble with reduced friction for smooth playing feel and consistent intonation.
- Guts of the set: Silver-Plated Copper Wound on Nylon — the 3rd and 4th strings combine nylon cores with silver-plated copper windings, creating richer mids and a slightly brighter top end without sacrificing warmth.
- Baritone optimization — tailored for baritone ukuleles tuned to D-G-B-E, balancing tension and tension distribution to minimize buzzing and maximize sustain across the lowest to highest notes.
- Non-ball end — compatible with widely used baritone bridge configurations, simplifying installation and setup.
- Gauges that matter — Nylon:.028 (1st),.034 (2nd); Silver-plated Copper:.030 (3rd),.035 (4th) for a cohesive feel from the high strings to the wound lows.
- Made in the USA — crafted and quality-controlled in the United States to ensure consistent responds and reliability you can trust on stage or in the studio.
Who should use EJ65B and how it helps
Ideal for players seeking articulate trebles without harshness and a warm, singing baritone low end. The combination of precise, laser-sorted treble strings with robust wound bass strings provides a more even tonal palette across the fretboard—great for fingerstyle arrangements, chord-mheel passages, and expressive solo leads.
Use cases and scenarios
- Recording sessions where a clear, controlled treble and solid projection are essential for sitar-tinged chords or bright melodic lines.
- Live performances requiring reliable tuning stability and even response from the bass to the treble strings.
- Practice goals that demand consistent tension and smooth playability for baritone repertoire.
How this set compares to other nylon options
Unlike standard nylon sets that may rely on uniform nylon windings, EJ65B uses a specialized Pro-Arte Custom Extruded nylon for trebles paired with silver-plated copper windings on the bass strings. The result is a more defined treble, improved sustain, and a cohesive overall tension that complements the longer scale and tension requirements of baritone ukuleles.
If you’re upgrading from a generic nylon set, EJ65B provides a specifically engineered balance for baritone ukuleles—offering clarity in the upper register, warmth in the mids, and dependable feel across the entire neck.
Tip: When installing, align the first and second strings for smooth winding along the tuning pegs, and allow the set a short playing-in period to settle into optimal intonation and resonance on your instrument.
