ELECTRIC GUITAR STRINGS
VERITAS™ Electric Guitar Strings maintain their tone, tuning stability and intonation thanks to our Coated Core Technology™, a process of coating the round core wire, which locks the wrap wire in place and extends string life by protecting the core from corrosion. A Quantum Nickel™ wrap wire delivers more power, brighter tone and greater flexibility and responsiveness. All VERITAS™ sets include both standard plain steel AND Xenon Power-Plain™ strings, which have increased output to balance with the wound strings.
PURE BLUES™ Electric Guitar Strings are constructed with a pure nickel wrap wire on a round core wire to produce a distinctive warm and balanced sound with rich overtones and a vintage vibe. They create the unmistakable tone and feel of classic American rock and blues with chords that ring out sweet and round, while leads have more punchiness and sustain. They feel smooth and playable with a remarkably responsive touch.
TITE-FIT™ Electric Guitar Strings utilize a nickel-plated steel wrap wire wound on a round core wire to produce a fatter sound. This classic construction makes TITE-FIT™ a great all-around string that works for a range of styles and genres, including Rock, Blues, Metal and Jazz. The use of the finest core and wrap-wire materials ensure this classic design meets modern performance standards.
DDT™ Drop Down Tuning Electric Guitar Strings maintain their intonation at lower tunings thanks to Coated Core Technology™ (CCT™), a coated hexagonal core wire that locks the nickel-plated steel wrap wire in place to increase stability and maintains intonation at any tension. DDTs go right into tune and deliver clean and clear notes. Change tunings and be surprised how DDT's lock right in without constant adjustment.
HI-BEAM™ Electric Guitar Strings feature a nickel-plated steel wrap wound on a hexagonal core wire, delivering a bright tone with great versatility that can stretch across a wide array of musical genres. They’re ideal for players looking for a bit more brightness without losing a solid tone. They tune up quickly without a lot of break-in and then stay put.
LEGEND™ Polished Flatwound Electric Guitar Strings have long been a jazz standard due to their warm, mellow tone, rounded and full low without losing punch and attack. The feel of the polished stainless-steel wrap wire is smooth and comfortable under the fingers, while the hexagonal core wire provides great flexibility.
DIMEBAG DARRELL
HI-VOLTAGE™ Electric Guitar Strings are the signature strings played by the late metal icon Dimebag Darrell. They feature a hexagonal core wire and nickel-plated steel wrap wire treated with a liquid polymer that protects them from corrosive elements. As Dime used to say, “They’re great for everything, from big ol’ string bends, to huge whammy bar dives, perfect for blood curdling harmonic screams and just straight out heavy chunky riffin’.”
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 round 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.
BLACK BEAUTIES™ Black Colored Electric Guitar Strings aren’t just about the sleek and sophisticated look. They feature a hexagonal core wire and a nickel-plated steel wrap wire to maintain brightness and feel. All strings in the set are coated with a jet-black version of DR’s K3™ ultra-hard coating, delivering longevity, more projection, fewer unwanted overtones, and outstanding clarity and articulation.
RED DEVILS™ Red Colored Electric Guitar Strings aren’t for the timid. With hexagonal core wires and silver-plated steel wrap wires, their loud and aggressive sound compliments their vibrant color. All strings in the set are coated with a red-colored version of DR’s proprietary K3™ coating, which delivers longevity, more projection, fewer unwanted overtones, and outstanding clarity and articulation.
HI-DEF NEON™ Color Coated Electric Guitar Strings are available in a wide variety of luminescent color options designed to give your stage presence a little extra pop, especially under UV black lighting. They feature a hexagonal core wire and a silver-plated steel wrap on the wound strings. All strings include the neon colored K3™ coating, delivering longevity, more projection, fewer unwanted overtones, plus enhanced clarity and articulation.
