The Chromes Grain: the Flat Wound That Changes the Feel
The D'Addario CG022 belongs to the renowned Chromes range, known for its particularly refined finish. Thanks to a strand of flattened stainless steel that is then polished, this flatwound string offers a remarkably smooth surface: less fret noise, a more "silky" touch under the fingers, and enhanced control, especially during fast shifts and sustained positions.
A Single String to Adjust Your Gauge and Set
With a .022 gauge, the CG022 is ideal as a replacement string (convenient in case of breakage or localized wear) or for composing a custom set. Musicians who like to fine-tune the balance between tension, intonation, and comfort will appreciate the ability to precisely adjust their gauge, whether for a guitar dedicated to jazz, vintage tones, or a softer, more controlled playing style.
A Warm, Soft, and Rich Sound Typical of Flatwounds
The Chromes Flat Wound strings are designed to deliver the unique sonic signature of flatwounds: a rounder attack, controlled sustain, and a warm and soft tone that highlights chords, melodic lines, and clean sounds. This is an excellent choice if you seek a more muted response without losing harmonic richness, while enjoying one of the most popular flatwound strings worldwide.
