Half the price of Chromes, but not half the quality
Slowpaw 14.10.2022
Lighter and slinkier than my DAddario flatwounds and half the price. Ok so the look of the string isn’t quite as high quality as the Chromes but they are close, and allow for easier bends and so are better for rock and roll or bluesy stuff. I’d say for those used to roundwounds, give these a try first.
For Jazzers used to flatwounds, maybe they offer less fatigue.

Not bad if you want to try out flatwound guitar strings

I have the lowest 4 strings installed on a cigar box guitar. Expected a bit more muted tone, they are still quite lively, no finger noise though. Good price point to try out flatwounds.

Fine strings, but too skinny in the end
Wes Frost 21.09.2025
Good quality, but i found out fast that these are way too skinny for my liking. I am using 9's roundwounds on other guitars (9-42 to be exact) and the usual 10 roundwounds already feel too stiff and thick to me, however it is not the case with these flatwounds. The sounds is good, a bit too bright and sparkly to my liking. I bought 12's already - those sound and feel way better.
