Description
DR NEONs are super bright color coated strings that sound clear, bright and musical. Players love the bright NEON colors and their remarkable sound. Super bright in daylight and under stage lighting, DR NEON is 100% black light reactive and glow strongly under UV lighting. NEONs are the first coated string to make no apologies. While Neon's last as long as a coated string should (three to four times as long as uncoated strings) they sound as good, or better, than uncoated strings.

Love, love DR strings for all of my basses. These neon orange strings pop on my mint green Music Man 5 string. Nothing but compliments on the look but especially the sound of the strings.

Oh So Green!
Color: Green
Size: 45-105
They feel great! They seem to be tough, Would DEFINITELY work for metal/aggressive players. So likewise they would work for any genre. The color is SO COOL! Matches my whole rig theme perfectly.

Bright look, soft tone.
Color: Multi-color
Size: 30-125
These strings are incredibly bright (visually) and on a white bass, really make an impression. I'm not a bass/string expert but I find these strings OK. I bought these strings as the first set for my first 6 string because I thought perhaps the colors would subconsciously help me put the tonal quality to each string and help me internalize the fretboard. I don't think it's done anything like that for me, in fact sometimes I wish the strings weren't different colors, but it hasn't been a real detriment. As for feel, the strings feel "softer" from the coating, which is not a bad thing. Another nice thing about the coating is that the strings don't feel so cold on those colder days you want to pick up your instrument. As for sound, the strings are a more mellow (less bright) with the coating than with your traditional strings. It's not so much such that it's a handicap on certain styles like slap or tapping, but it's great if you like to play with a mellow tone. As for durability, the DR website says that the coating will wear off (but not chip, flake) from use with a pick. This is probably more tuned to guitarists, rather than bassists - and if you are a pick bass player, these strings are probably too mellow for the sound you'd want to get with a pick. The coating shows some wear at the frets after bending, but doesn't really show except on the thinnest strings (since they roll when you bend). I play fingerstyle mostly, and, aside from the wear from bending, the strings are still stunning. I still would like to try other brands to test my tone, but I definitely wouldn't mind getting another DR neon set, just perhaps all one color.

Great guitar strings, but I have a Bass guitar.
Color: Red
Size: 45-125
I bought these to play on my short scale Bass, but they are meant for a guitar. I really like the color, and wish I had payed more attention to the offering. Now that I have replaced the bridge on my mini Bass, I will give it another go. The color really pops! The strings seem to be of good quality.

don't buy them because i want them for me
Color: White
Size: 45-105
sound great. feel great. last a long time. white looks killer on the black on black jazz. very slick, irreplaceable look really and nobody else makes anything close. only problem, and it's significant, is that they go away often and DR likes to not stock them. stop it DR. make more DR. make them forever DR. i don't want to switch to a different string ever. read my amazon review DR it's important.
