Description
DR Sunbeam bass strings deliver the round-core, hand-wound construction DR has been known for since 1989, paired with a nickel-plated wrap that softens brightness while keeping definition intact. The .045, .065, .085, .105, .125 gauge set covers standard 4-string bass setups, giving players a balanced feel from the low B up through the top strings without sacrificing punch or clarity.
DR builds every set by hand, a process the company has refined for decades to keep tension consistent string to string. That attention to detail shows up in the way Sunbeams respond under the fingers: even, predictable, and free of dead spots. Whether you’re tracking in the studio or gigging live, these strings hold their tone through extended play.
