D'Addario chrome flat wound electric guitar strings

Introducing the D'Addario ECG26 chrome flatwound electric guitar strings

ECG26 is D'Addario's heaviest gauge of flat wounds, delivering a smooth feel with a warm/mellow tone and maximum tension. This mellow tone with full low end makes them perfect for jazz, blues and rock players.

D'Addario XL Chromes are the industry standard in flatwound guitar strings. They deliver a round, full low end, making them ideal for jazz players of all types. Wound with flattened stainless steel ribbon wire, XL Chromes are then polished to unparalleled smoothness.

Flattened for a fuller sound

Flat wound strings features precisely flattened stainless steel wrap wire that is wound and polished to provide an ultra smooth feel and a full, mellow tone.

Hex core construction

Precision drawn hexagonal core was pioneered by D'Addario. This innovation allows the wrap wire to grip the core for superior dimensional stability, enhanced durability, and precise intonation.

Wound to perfection

String winding equipment is designed and built by D'Addario's engineering team, guaranteeing a production range of 500,000 to 700,000 strings per day. Digitally-controlled string winding machines ensure productivity, accuracy and consistency.
