HI-BEAM™ Stainless Steel Bass Strings

Professor’s Notes
Hi-Beams are the DR classic—stainless steel strings with brightness, punch, and a smooth feel that makes them a favorite for players who want modern clarity without harshness. Flexible and responsive, they sing whether you’re fingerstyle, slapping, or digging in with a pick.

Description

HI-BEAM™ stainless steel bass strings are round wound and constructed on a round core which is unique in the industry. Hi-Beams require much more time, care and extra steps to make than other bass strings. The extra effort DR expends making Hi-Beams results in a bass string that is highly flexible and musically but not harshly bright. They are renowned for durability, unusually long life, consistency and string-to-string balance. They don’t eat your frets. HI-BEAMS are the string to choose for brightness, punch and ease of playing. Hi-Beam bass strings require much more time, care and extra steps to make than other bass strings.
