  • Legitimately the best strings ever 😄
Size: DBSM6-30 6 String Multi-Scale Medium 30-125
These strings are exactly what I needed for my 6-string bass. I love the DR coated strings and have used them for years, they keep that brightness of the "new string sound" for much longer, which is CRITICAL for getting good tone, especially for metal. If I had to change strings every month to get clear, articulate recordings, I would end up spending so much more, it would be unsustainable. These retain brightness and clarity for several months longer than uncoated strings, and I will continue to buy this set as long as they keep making them. They don't cost more than other high quality strings. The coating seems to have a slightly more midrange tone, but barely, and can easily be adjusted with eq, but I actually love it. These strings allow for that "piano chime", the frequency response is wide open so you can tailor it to your liking by cutting frequencies with your preamp or pedals. The upper midrange and top end of these strings is just what I need for getting that growl and pushing the overdrive and distortion. I wish they were available in a greater variety of gauges, BUT this set is perfect for my 6-string, which is the Ibanez EHB 1506-MS headless bass. They also have tapered core on the ball end, that fits the saddles better, I have always loved this design and I swear by it. The coating does not affect playability, I play fingerstyle mostly, and in fact, the coating is easier on my fingertips than the steel would be, and I LOVE the sound of stainless steel strings for bass. I couldn't ask for more from a set of bass strings, I will buy these forever. ... show more

  • GOOD strings
Size: DBS5-40 5 String Light 40-120
I've used Lo-beams light gauge sets for a couple of decades, but I bought these on a whim. I'm glad I did. They have a good tone, are easy on the fingers with a fairly soft touch, and hold tuning VERY well. I'm using the .040-.120 set on my Ibanez SR 5-string, and they suit my tastes just about perfectly. Now the real test will be to see how long they last. I've only had them a couple of months. ... show more

  • Long lasting
Size: DBS6-30 6 String Medium 30-125
These are surprising. I wanted to try them, but got the final push when Janek Gwizdala, who usually changes his strings every 12 hours of play time, said he kept a single set on for a whole tour. They are stiffer than normal Hi-Beams, closer to Fat-Beams, but their tone has not changed since after the first hour of install/playing. Not as bright as the Hi-Beams, probably as bright as Fat-beams with a couple hours on them, but the tone hasn't changed. This is after three church services and 5-6 hrs of practice. Worth the money to me. ... show more

  • Pricey but worth it if you don’t like changing strings
Size: DBS5-45 5 String Medium 45-125
Why did you pick this product vs others?: These are great! Sound a feel like High Beams, only I don’t have to change them as frequently .

  • I’ll stick to using Hi-Beams
Size: DBS-45 Medium 45-105
I usually use Hi-Beams, but decided to give these a try. I liked them, but didn’t notice enough of an extended life compared to Hi-Beams to justify paying $10 more for a set.

  • Read the inside of the box first!
Size: DBS-45 Medium 45-105
Really too early to tell. Haven’t broken them in yet. The only gripe I have is they shouldn’t write the instructions on the inside of the box. My grandson was done before I noticed them.
