A flatwound set designed for jazz, studio, and muted sounds
The Ernie Ball 2582 Flats Medium Light 12-52 are aimed at guitarists seeking a rounder, softer, and less "bright" tone than traditional strings. Thanks to their tin-plated steel core construction and polished stainless steel ribbon, they deliver a consistent response, a more muted attack, and a particularly comfortable sliding sensation. An excellent choice for jazz, recordings, or any setup where you want to limit unwanted noise while maintaining a solid and stable foundation.
