D'Addario ECG24 Chromes Flat Wound Electric Guitar Strings — Jazz Light 11-50
The Standard for Warm, Smooth Flatwound Tone
The D'Addario ECG24 Chromes are flatwound electric guitar strings built for players who want a warm, mellow voice and a glassy-smooth feel under the fingers. Polished to a satin finish, Chromes have been the go-to flatwound for jazz, blues, and R&B guitarists for decades - and the Jazz Light 11-50 gauge balances classic flatwound warmth with comfortable, even playability.
Polished Flat Ribbon Wrap
Each wound string uses a flat stainless steel ribbon wrap that is precision-ground and polished, eliminating the ridges of a roundwound string. The result is dramatically reduced finger noise, a fast slick surface for position shifts, and a smooth tone with strong fundamental and controlled overtones.
Construction
- Wrap: Polished flat stainless steel ribbon for a warm, mellow tone.
- Core: Hex-shaped high-carbon steel for tuning stability and consistent intonation.
- Surface: Ground and polished flat for reduced finger noise and a slick feel.
- Gauge: Jazz Light 11-50.
