D'Add ECG25, 12-52

The D'Addario ECG25 Chromes are a heavy-gauge set of flatwound electric guitar strings, widely considered the gold standard for traditional jazz and archtop guitarists. Featuring a 12-52 gauge profile, this set offers higher tension and a robust, full-bodied resonance that provides maximum projection and a firm feel under the fingers. The strings are constructed with a high-carbon steel core and a stainless steel ribbon winding that is polished to a glass-like finish, virtually eliminating finger noise while delivering a distinctively warm, "thumpy" vintage tone. Renowned for their exceptional durability and smooth tactile response, the ECG25s are the go-to choice for players who demand a rich, dampened sound and stable intonation for intricate chord melodies and smooth lead lines.
