  • Drop-tuning Electric Bass Strings - .045-.105

Description

The first thing you will notice about these strings is that they go right into tune and lock in. Players say they are “so stable it is almost eerie.” Now you can stand and deliver in tune notes at lower pitch that are clean and clear. Expect more and get more. Change tunings and be surprised how DDT's lock right in. Be surprised how little adjustments you make. DDTs deliver far more than just heavy gauges. Drop with confidence, drop with accuracy. DDTs maintain their intonation at lower tunings far better than any other string we have ever played or heard. Designed over a two year build and test period to answer the needs of the dark side. From the Manufacturer DDT™ Drop Down Tuning Bass Strings go right into tune and lock in thanks to Accurate Core Technology™ (ACT™), a coated hexagonal core wire that locks the stainless-steel wrap wire in place to increase stability and maintain intonation at any tension. Now you can deliver notes at lower pitch that are clean, clear and in tune. Change tunings and DDT's lock right in and require little to no adjustment between play.

Not impressed..
I bought these based on a recommendation from a reputable source as it was time to change my strings out. My ESP LTD TA-204 FRX played beautifully and had no buzzing anywhere on the neck. Maybe I just got a bad batch? But now it's hard to find a place that doesn't have an awful buzzing sound. Think I'll be going back to D'Addario. ... show more

Great for drop tuning
Love these but they do die out and sound like blah haha. Great for recording I wouldn’t use them live

Good Stuff!
Love DR strings. The DDT series seem to hold true to their intended purpose. I tune to C# standard and find these to be a great fit. Although I enjoy trying new strings, I always come back to or have sets of DR's on hand for my bass. Good stuff.

Nah not great
Looking for a stiffer string when I drop tune. Still not as good as GHS BASS boomers

AWESOME!
DR nailed it with these strings! Once the Black Beauties wear out on the 5 string, I'll be getting these for it, too. Quick shipping, too! THX!
