JS112 : Jazz string set

I'm experimenting with different brands and guages of string for my archtop guitars. So far these are my preferred strings, having had roundwound and half wound versions, as well as D'Addario chromes.

These are the .012 to .050 set and are very full sounding on a vintage Yamaha archtop. I also have a set of TI Jazz Swings on my vintage Gibson ES-175 and they are also good with .011 - .047 but the JS112 set do feel that bit 'fatter' in my opinion.

So in summary, a great set of jazz flatwounds, with a full tone, no string noise when you slide from one position to another, so recommended for jazz styles. As you probably know, these are not good for rock / blues if you want to do much string bending.

I plan to try some other flatwounds, such as the George Benson sets, but so far these are giving excellent results!
