Description
Drop tunings are notorious for going soft and wobbly, but DR’s DDT (Drop Down Tuning) strings are engineered specifically to fight that problem. The secret is Accurate Core Technology (ACT): a coated hexagonal core wire that grips the stainless steel wrap wire firmly in place. That tight bond keeps the string stable and true regardless of how far down you tune or how hard you dig in.
For bassists who regularly shift between standard and lowered tunings, this set is a practical solution. Instead of fighting intonation issues or waiting for strings to settle after a tuning change, you get strings that lock into pitch almost instantly and need little to no re-adjustment during a set. The result is a low end that stays clean, clear, and articulate, whether you’re parked in standard tuning or dropped several steps down.
- Gauge set: .045, .065, .085, .105
- Stainless steel wrap wire for bright, cutting tone
- Coated hexagonal core wire (ACT) for enhanced stability under any tension
- Designed to hold pitch and intonation through frequent tuning changes
- Minimal stretch-in time between drop tunings
If your playing takes you between multiple tunings on the same instrument, this DR set is built to keep up without sacrificing tone or reliability.
