Description

The Thomastik-Infeld JS110 is the legendary flatwound jazz guitar string in its extra-light incarnation, found on the guitars of countless jazz icons over decades of studio and stage work. Unlike ground wound or compressed wound sets that mimic the feel, this is a true flatwound — polished nickel wrap wire drawn over a round core, delivering the glassy-smooth feel and mellow, articulate voice that defines traditional jazz tone. The plain E and B are brass-plated steel; the G, D, A, and low E are nickel flatwound.

Designed specifically for semi-acoustic and acoustic jazz guitars, the JS110 delivers the perfect balance of fundamental to overtones for the genre: warm bass definition, bell-like treble clarity, and a silky transition from open chords to bar chords. Tonal life is remarkably long — many players report that the sound actually deepens and matures with age. At .010-.044, this is the lightest gauge in the Jazz Swing line, well suited to players who want fluid feel without sacrificing the powerful jazz voice the series is known for. Made in Vienna to Thomastik-Infeld's century-old standards.
