A short review about dr strings sunbeams and its unique compression winding wiring process that makes this strings more suitable to play in long gigs.

Dr hi beams vs pure blues.

Acoustic players will find a distinct improvement in tone depth and sustain. Nice sound for cleans blues. Today i tried dr pure blues. I normally play nickel in 11 s to get the same tension as 10 s.

Pure blues quantum nickel bass guitar strings. Hi beams require much more time care and extra steps to make than other bass strings. Smooth bending and les wear on frets. I put them on my sandberg vm4 p and mm pickups.

Some say not for high gain or metal though. Alberto rigoni compares dr strings marcus miller signature with lo rider. They combine winding techniques developed for dr s long lasting hi beam bass strings and dr s rich full sustaining rare phosphor bronze acoustic guitar strings. Hi beam stainless steel bass strings are round wound and constructed on a round core which is unique in the industry.

Pure blues are nickel round wound over a round nickel core though i ve never specifically read that in the specs they describe them as pure nickel. The extra effort dr expends making hi beams results in a bass string that is highly flexible and musically but not harshly bright. I went with the standard 45 105 gauge set and the feel and tension on them is perfect as they aren t floppy like other dr strings i ve played. In this video alberto uses his alusonic hybrid signature bass.
