I decided to try some Thomastik Infeld JS113 flats on my Eastman and wow they sound great! The tension feels great against the pick, and the tone is punchy and warm. They have a nice even volume across the strings and up the neck… fantastic strings! Check ’em out: https://amzn.to/3uAXBiY
Trying Thomastik Infeld Jazz Swing 11-47 JS11 Guitar Strings
These strings sound great! They are punchy and even but they don’t have an overstated midrange. They are warm but not dead. Awesome stings!
Going up to 11 with the TI Jazz Swings didn’t feel a whole lot heavier than regular 10s. The strings have a great feeling balance against the pick. They are almost snappy feeling, but they still have the tension I like.
The G string is wound and when you bend strings it will kind of roll under your finger, so if you need to be able to really bend then you might want to grab a single G string.. something between .17 and .19 will do the job.
Since the time I filmed this video, I’ve used them on my Telecaster as well. I like them more than I liked the Chrome 10s. They are currently my favorite flat wounds.
