Savor Smooth Vintage-tinged Tones and Fewer Squeaks!

Players who favor loud cleans or vintage styles are sure to love the mellow presence and string noise reduction that Ernie Ball flatwounds provide. When you cinch Ernie Ball Flatwound strings to your electric guitar, you'll instantly notice a warmer sound, smoother attack, and cleaner fundamental focus. Ernie Ball Flatwound strings feature sturdy tin-plated steel hex cores and are wound using stainless steel ribbon, which makes them every bit as durable as conventional roundwounds. Moreover, Ernie Ball Flatwounds have a glassy-smooth feel that significantly reduces friction and string noise. Such traits have made flatwounds a go-to string choice for jazz, blues, and vintage country players, but flatwounds are also perfect for the solo electric performer who needs loud cleans and less anxiety when navigating the neck. Sweetwater guitarists also confirm that Ernie Ball Flatwound strings readily handle crunch or high-gain tones, so long as you adjust your EQ, tone, and compression settings accordingly. Discover the string alternative that works for you with a set of Ernie Ball Flatwounds!

Ernie Ball EB2580 Flatwound Electric Guitar Strings Features:

  • Vintage-inspired flatwound electric guitar strings produce a warm, mellow tone
  • Facilitates a smoother attack and stronger focus on fundamentals than roundwound strings
  • Smooth, polished feel reduces unwanted finger noise such as squeaks
  • Durable steel hex cores plated with tin, wound with stainless steel ribbon
  • A favorite for jazz, vintage blues, vintage country, and solo electric performers
