The Thomastik-Infeld JS111T Jazz Swing is a premier flatwound electric guitar string set crafted specifically for jazz archtop, hollowbody, and semi-hollow instruments. Handcrafted in Vienna, this light .011–.047 gauge set pairs glassy-smooth, mirror-polished pure nickel flat ribbon windings on supple round steel cores with corrosion-resistant, tin-plated plain treble strings.

Unlike standard brass-plated versions, the tin-plated plain steel E and B strings of the JS111T offer a classic silver aesthetic, enhanced resistance to perspiration and humidity, and a pristine, clear high-end response. Combined with a wound G string for spot-on archtop intonation and Thomastik-Infeld's signature low-tension feel, Australian jazz guitarists rely on this set for fatigue-free playing, zero finger squeak, reduced fret wear, and the iconic, velvety tone that defined classic jazz recordings.
