I absolutely love EB cobalt strings. I have them strung on my passive jazz bass and the tone is incredible. I also have a set of cobalt flats on my fretless that produces a great tone as well. The other day I was reading about cobalt mining if Africa and how children are forced to mine it. This was kind of troubling for to read and it made me think about the strings I use. I just want to know if anyone has the answer to where the cobalt in the strings is sourced from. I'm not trying to be some politically correct blowhard but this does concern me.
Please tell me that Ernie Ball doesn't buys from cobalt countries that exploit people like this.
thank You.
