Description
If you’ve never played a flatwound, ECG24 is the set that explains why players get hooked. Under your fingers there’s none of the drag or squeak you get from roundwounds — just a glassy, polished surface that glides. Plug in and you get that classic damped, woody warmth that made flatwounds the go-to for traditional jazz, but with enough clarity to work for rockabilly twang, R&B, and even some pop/rock leanings.
D’Addario builds Chromes by flattening stainless steel ribbon wire and polishing it to a mirror-smooth finish over the core. That process is exactly what gives these strings their signature tone-rich, mellow sustain — a sound roundwounds simply can’t replicate. It’s no accident these are the world’s most popular flatwounds; the balance of feel, tension, and tone in this Jazz Light gauge is dialed in.
- D’Addario’s best-selling flatwound gauge
- Ribbon wound and polished for a smooth, warm, mellow voice
- Corrosion-resistant packaging keeps them fresh until you break the seal
- Made in the U.S.A.
- Gauges: .011, .015 plain steel; .022, .030, .040, .050 stainless steel flatwound
Swap out your dead, dull-sounding roundwounds for a set that actually rewards frequent restringing — once you feel the difference a fresh set of Chromes makes, going back is tough.
