D'Addario XL Chromes ECG25 Light 12-52 Gauge Electric Guitar Strings

D'Addario XL Chromes ECG25 Light 12-52 Gauge Electric Guitar Strings

From D'Addario:


XL Chromes are our warmest, mellowest electric guitar strings. Beloved by jazz guitarists, as well as blues legends like Gary Clark Jr., these flat wound strings provide the smoothest feel and warmest tone, while allowing movement across the fretboard with no finger noise. Made with a high carbon steel core, Chromes’ stainless steel flattened ribbon wire is expertly wound onto a series of interlocking under-windings, then precisely polished for unparalleled smoothness and a sound which blends beautifully into any mix. This 12-52 Light set adds some additional tension over Jazz and Extra Light flat wound gauges, for a slightly fuller tone.

 JAZZ, ALL GENRES
