Description
If you want that old-school flatwound growl without the finger squeak of roundwounds, Chromes are the set every session bassist eventually reaches for. D’Addario winds these with flattened stainless steel ribbon wire, then polishes them down to a glass-smooth surface. The result is a deep, woody low end with a soft attack that sits perfectly under vocals in jazz, R&B, and plenty of pop mixes where you need presence without pick noise.
- Medium scale set fits basses with up to a 34-inch string length
- Ribbon-wound and polished for a silky feel under the fingers
- Warm, mellow tone with a rounded low end—classic flatwound character
- Made in the U.S.A. on D’Addario’s precision, digitally controlled machinery
- Gauges: .045, .065, .080, .100 (wound)
These are D’Addario’s best-selling flatwound bass strings for a reason—consistent set after set, with the kind of tone that makes upright players feel at home on an electric neck. Whether you’re chasing a Motown thump or just want less finger noise on a fretless, ECB81M delivers the flatwound sound players keep coming back to.
