Black Beauties BKB-45 : DR Black Beauties.

7 years ago

I?ve been a fan of DR Strings for many years. I?ve mainly used DR High Beams on all my Basses. I love the sound, very bright but not too much to make them sound harsh and they also last for ages.

Read a lot of positive reviews of the Black Beauties and thought I?d give them a go. A bit more expensive but worth a try.

First impression was they looked great on my Warwick Streamer 5 string. Found them quite rough compared to the High Beams and to my ears didn?t quite sound as bright. The black coating is meant to make them last longer but I don?t feel that they lasted any longer than my usual strings.

Glad I tried them but I?ll stick to my High Beams.
