D'Addario EFT16 Flat Tops Acoustic Guitar Strings - (12-53) Light

Tired of unwanted squeaks and harsh finger slide noise ruining your acoustic tracks? The D'Addario EFT16 Flat Tops offer the perfect solution for recording musicians, slide players, and fingerstylists who demand an ultra-quiet performance without sacrificing classic acoustic warmth.

By blending the rich, resonant tone of traditional phosphor bronze with an exclusive precision-grinding process, D’Addario has created a semi-flat string that feels as smooth as silk and plays with absolute clarity.

Key Features

• Precision Ground Surface Eliminates Finger Noise: D'Addario Flat Tops are first round-wound, then meticulously ground down and polished. This results in a flattened outer surface that drastically reduces fret-hand noise—making them an absolute must-have in the recording studio.
• Smooth Playability: Offers a slicker, highly polished feel under the fingers that is exceptionally gentle on fingertips and perfect for slide guitar.
• USA Made & Freshly Sealed: Manufactured at D'Addario's New York facility and packed in corrosion-resistant, eco-friendly packaging so your strings arrive pristine.
