Description

D’Addario EHR350 Half Round Electric Guitar Strings are designed for players who want the smooth feel and warmth associated with flatwounds, without losing the clarity and bite of a roundwound set. The Jazz Light 12-52 gauge offers a confident, musical tension that suits articulate chord work, melodic soloing and expressive comping. Whether you play hollowbody jazz, clean fusion, soulful blues or need controlled top end for recording, these strings deliver a refined response with outstanding note definition. They are ideal for guitarists who value reduced finger noise, stable tuning and a polished playing surface that glides under the fingers during longer sessions on stage or in the studio.

What sets EHR350 apart is D’Addario’s precision grinding process, which gently polishes a nickel wound roundwound to a semi flat profile. This results in a noticeably smoother feel and less string squeak, while preserving the lively attack and harmonic detail that many players miss with fully flat strings. The Nickel Plated Steel wrap balances warmth and presence, giving a full, rounded low end, pronounced mids and a crisp but controlled treble. The even tension across the set supports consistent bending, accurate intonation and confident dynamic control at any volume.

For lessons, school ensembles and daily practice, these strings provide excellent reliability, tuning stability and consistency across the fingerboard. The smoother surface helps students produce cleaner shifts and quieter position changes, which is particularly useful for clean tones and assessed performances. Durable construction and steady performance make them strong value for frequent rehearsals and home practice, while the Jazz Light gauge feels supportive without being overly stiff. Fitting most standard electric guitars, EHR350 offers an easy upgrade from basic student strings, helping players progress with a more comfortable feel, clearer articulation and a polished tone that works beautifully with common UK tuition and ensemble requirements.

Features

Precision ground half round feel

These strings start life as roundwounds, then are carefully ground to a semi flat surface that feels smooth under the fingers. You get the playing comfort and reduced squeak associated with flats, while retaining the snap and definition of a traditional roundwound set.

Jazz Light 12-52 balance

The 12-52 Jazz Light gauge provides confident tension for articulate chords and melody lines, without feeling unwieldy. It offers a supportive feel for clean comping and sustained notes, with enough flexibility for expressive vibrato and controlled bends.

Nickel-plated steel tone and response

Nickel-plated steel delivers a warm, rounded low end, focused mids and a clear, controlled top. The result is a balanced, musical voice that suits hollowbodies and solid-body electrics alike, responding well to clean amps, pedals and subtle overdrive.

Reduced finger noise for recording

The semi flat surface minimises string squeak during position shifts, ideal for clean performance, studio work and detailed practice. This helps parts sit better in a mix and supports precise articulation in ensemble settings.

Stable tuning and lasting performance

Built for consistency, EHR350 settles quickly and holds pitch well across rehearsals and gigs. The durable construction maintains tone and feel over time, offering solid value for students, teachers and regular performers.
