Why customers choose it

• Rich, musical sound: a nickel-plated steel wrap on a round core gives a strong fundamental with balanced overtones.
• Smooth feel: compression winding fits more mass on the string for a smoother feel and longer life.
• Flexible: the round core makes the strings flexible and easy to bend.
• Proven: DR says Tite-Fit has been a string of choice among top guitar players for over 30 years.

Who it is for

Guitarists who want sweet mids, singing highs and a full sound – rock, blues, metal and jazz players who like a smoother-feeling string.

Specifications

Good to know

• DR Strings are handmade in Westwood, New Jersey, USA, from American-made core wire, wrap wire and ball ends.
• This is an 8-string set – it will not fit a 6 or 7-string guitar.
• Round-core DR strings have a small flattened section just past the nut that anchors the wrap wire. If you trim the string between the ball end and this section, first crimp it with a sharp bend – otherwise the string can unwind, go dead and lose intonation.
• Fits a standard 8-string electric guitar; check that the gauge suits your instrument and setup.
