The Thomastik JS110 Jazz Swing Flatwound Electric Strings are a go-to choice for players looking to capture that smooth, traditional jazz sound. Built around a true flatwound construction—not compressed or groundwound—they use glassy, polished nickel on a round core to reduce finger noise and improve playability. This gives each note a mellow warmth without sacrificing clarity.
This extra light set includes brass-plated plain steel trebles (gauges .010 and .014) paired with flatwound nickel-wrapped lower strings (.018, .023, .033, .044), creating a tone that suits clean jazz voicings, comping, and single-line runs with ease.
Balanced tension also makes them easy on the fingers, while the long-lasting materials offer a consistent tone that players often say improves with time. Ideal for archtop players or anyone chasing that classic jazz voice.
