DRAGON SKIN 

COATED ELECTRIC

Products / Coated Electric / Dragon Skin

DRAGON SKIN™ Electric Guitar Strings feature DR’s K3™ clear coating on a nickel-plated steel wrap wire to prevent dirt and perspiration from reaching the hexagonal core wire, preventing corrosion. The K3™ coating, which is applied to all strings in the set, is ultra-hard and doesn’t dampen vibration like softer coatings can. The strings have more projection, fewer unwanted overtones, greater clarity and articulation than uncoated strings.

PRODUCT SPECS

String Length: 38"

Material: K3 Clear Coated Nickel-Plated Steel. Hexagonal Core Wire with Ball End.
