Specifications

Good to know

• DR Strings are handmade in Westwood, New Jersey, USA, from American-made core wire, wrap wire and ball ends.
• 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 6-string bass guitar; check that the gauge suits your instrument and setup.
