  • The best strings ever
Style: 1-Pack Size: Extra Light, 10-48
So if you don't do flatwounds.... why... At least try... Brings a nice warm sound and crazy smooth. Probably not for everyone, but if you want some great strings try these out. Might be a bit expensive for a trial string. But you may find this is where the magic hides... Who knows.

  • Good for jazz
Style: 1-Pack Size: Light, 12-52
I put these on an Epiphone Sheraton II Pro which is a semi hollow body electric guitar. I’ve used them before on a Les Paul, and they are great if you want that smooth, buttery tone.

  • Love the feel and sound of these strings

Play nice and sound balanced without all the zing of round wound strings

  • Very smooth
Style: 1-Pack Size: Extra Light, 10-48
Lovely plucking sound on my Gretsch Hollowbody. Balances out the tinniness of hollowbodys with conventional electric strings. Feel so nice on the fingers and zero fret noise when changing position. Just press and play!

  • Great Strings!
Style: 1-Pack Size: Jazz Light, 11-50
I bought some Ernie Ball flatwound strings and they were garbage. These are fantastic flatwound strings. I use them on my Gretsch and the sound fantastic!

  • Squeak-free
Style: 1-Pack Size: Extra Light, 10-48
I was listening to a professionally-recorded guitar piece that sounded great but for all of the shrieks in between each chord. I realize that it's something I've gotten used to over the years, but it struck me that there was no objective value in that, if it could in any way be avoided. I knew then what my wife was complaining about in my earlier years. I've gotten better at avoiding the squeak, but flat-wound strings would improve it, still. This was my first set of flats. Apart from the shrieks, I was also hoping it would also cut the slight grating that sometimes happened when my brass finger picks struck the strings at anything less than perpendicular. It worked for both. I was concerned that the flat-wound strings would be too "mellow." I didn't know what "mellow" sounded like, but I figured I would soon find out. Now that I'm playing them, I still don't know what it means. The sound is sharper, as expected from any new set, but the only difference in the lows is that the low strings hit the same pitches with less tension in the strings, making them sound a little more resonant and twangy, like a really good acoustic guitar. Over-all, though, these strings don't seem to have any great impact on tone. When I get into the groove I forget to notice that they're not the same as the round-wound strings. They just play more cleanly. The third highest string is wound, which is unusual, but they all feel and look just like like unwound strings, anyway. ... show more

  • Great tone and feel
Style: 1-Pack Size: Jazz Light, 11-50
Installed these strings on an Ibanez Artstar Prestige AS2000. They sound wonderful and are the most comfortable playing strings I’ve ever used. Love the smooth, silky feel! EDIT: I ordered another set through Amazon to keep for whenever a string change is necessary. This one had one corner of the package mostly torn off. I don't know if the tear breached the plastic wrap or not. If it did, the strings will corrode. The outer packaging was fine so I assume either Amazon or the seller sold me a damaged pack deliberately. Lesson learned. Buy strings from a "real" dealer. ... show more
