- A similarity to the JAZZ swing in materials and string architecture, but with a small gauge round wound nickel winding, produces a strong, fundamental rich jazzy tone that is somewhat brighter than a flat wound.
- This remarkable string is an excellent alternate choice or the player wanting real jazz tone, but with a bit more of an “edge”.
- Gauge: .014 .018 .022 .032 .040 .055
- Made in Austria.

Strings full of tone.
Best strings for jazz guitar I have come across. I use these round wounds on my Archtops, as they seem to be more responsive, and give a brighter sound than the flats, and the 014 gages for max tone, (I’d use a heavier set if I could find them). Sometimes, when playing rhythm/Big Band I will swap out the lower string (.055), for a lighter gage. But a more accomplished guitarist might choose to vary the bass emphasis by merely adjusting the arc of the pick stroke.
