The D’Addario XL Chromes flatwound bass strings deliver some of the smoothest and warmest tones in the entire D’Addario lineup. Designed for players who value ultra-smooth feel and deep, controlled warmth, these flatwound bass strings produce dark yet musical tones while allowing virtually silent movement across the fretboard.

Built around a high-carbon steel core, XL Chromes feature precision-polished flattened stainless steel ribbon windings wrapped over complex interwoven underwindings. This construction results in an exceptionally smooth surface and a focused, studio-friendly tone that sits perfectly in recordings.
