Description

Red Devils bass guitar strings with K3 Technology. The K3 coating is the first coating that players report, "sound as good or better than uncoated strings." DR's remarkable and proprietary K3 Technology coating is the first coating that makes no apologies and no excuses for not delivering sound equal to uncoated strings. Players tell us that these strings have more volume, less unwanted overtones, greater clarity and articulation than standard, uncoated strings. Yet, they provide the same protection due to corrosion and perspiration as well as increased tone life that coated strings are known for. From the Manufacturer RED DEVILS™ Red Colored Bass Strings aren’t for the timid. With round core wires and silver-plated nickel-plated steel wrap wires, their loud and aggressive sound compliments their vibrant color. All strings in the set are coated with a red-colored version of DR’s proprietary K3™ coating, which delivers longevity, more projection, fewer unwanted overtones, and outstanding clarity and articulation.

  • Great sounding.
Style: String
I recommend these strings, long lasting definitely great sounding , tone and feel plus they looks great on your instrument adds personality and color.

  • Great Tone + Easy on Your Frets and Your Fingers!
Style: String
I originally installed these on my semi-hollow body Gretch D6128 Thunderbass in an attempt to cut down on the string and fret noise I was getting with conventional strings. These not only reduced those issues considerably, the tone is fantastic! I have been using these on the Gretch now for over 18 months and have nothing but praise for these strings! The red color also adds a very unique look to the instrument and I am always getting compliments on the look! In addition to my D6128, I have also installed a set of these on my Candy Apple Red Fender Jaguar short scale bass with equally impressive results. The string itself is the time tested DR Sunbeam round core with the custom micro-coating applied. The same great tone you get from the Sunbeam string with the added benefit of reduced string and fret noise. I can't recommend these strings highly enough for anyone looking for a quality coated string. (Be sure to check out the photos I posted of my two guitars running Red Devils!) ... show more

Love these strings, you wouldn't know it! But they sound fantastic on a Acoustic Bass Guitar...

  • Great sounding strings with the added bonus of color
Style: String
These strings were reccomended to me by an acquaintance of mine during a bass clinic I attended recently. I ordered them right away.. All i can say is WOW! Excellent tone. It really brightened up my sound. I had gotten used to muddy sounding strings. I havent noticed a sticky feeling like others have mentioned, mine are silky smooth. Great playability. Was'nt too concerned about color, But When I installed them on my Ferrari red Carvin LB 70, I fell in love with my bass all over again. It looks stunning, and I get many comments about my bass now..Others have mentioned that the color wears off quickly, but I don't care, I'll used the color wear as a guage of when to change them..Then neon ones even glow brightly under a black light. Bass players don't get much credit so why not give them a show and something to talk about. ... show more

  • Premature Bassulation
Style: String
These are some of the red bass strings of all time! They last forever, unlike me

  • I only gave brightness 4 stars because the tone is SOOOO low-end
Style: String
I absolutely love DR Black Beauties, but I have a red Cort I needed to string, and saw these. I honestly can't tell the difference, except these are a bit thicker gauge than I normally get and the bottom end is MASSIVE. I don't think there's going to be a different type of strings on this bass anytime soon. I just put them on so I can't legitimately say they have better longevity being lower gauge, but if they're anything like the Black Beauties, they'll be quite solid for a bit. ... show more
