TI Jazz flats, what length?

[neepheid]

Hi there

I'm looking to get some TI Jazz flats and seeing as they're not the cheapest of strings I'd like to make sure I get the right length. I have an Italia Maranello Z which has a sloping tailpiece. The E string is the worst case scenario where there is around 3" of string from ball end to bridge saddle. That means that for the silks to clear the nut I will need at least 37" of string before the silks kick in.

Could someone do me a favour and measure one of their TI Jazz flat E strings and let me know the length from ball end to silks? There are two lengths - long and extra long.

Thanks

Don't worry, google is your friend and all that:

According to the American importer of TI strings - lengths from ball end to top silks of 34" scale TI Jazz flat strings:

C=37.26"
G=37.63"
D=37.38"
A=37.50"
E=37.75"
B=36.88"
