LONG-NECKS™ Tapered Bass Strings are ideal for contemporary bassists, as well as luthiers, who demand a tapered string to enable modern bass playing techniques. LONG NECKS™ have increased stability in the lower registers which produces excellent clarity and definition. These strings employ a single wrap wire around the hexagonal core wire where the string passes over the bridge.

Hex Core Wire

For super accurate harmonics

Balanced brightness that cuts through stainless steel

"DR Strings!  My relationship with DR began 1994 on the Bryan Ferry Mamouna World Tour.  The consistency of their strings continues to define how I hear music.  The strings I choose to use are brilliant in tone, long lasting, more importantly they allow me to speak freely and honestly when I am having a conversation in the language of music.  The DR Long-Neck strings are my go-to, and DR provides me with the tools I need to succeed!  I am team DR!!"
