Plays Easy. Feels Alive.
Round-core construction keeps tension supple and response quick, so your bass feels more fluid under the fingers. It’s a slower, more involved way to build strings — but the payoff in feel and tone is worth it.
Balanced From Top to Bottom
Every HI-BEAM set is hand-wound for a consistent feel and balanced output across the neck, no dead spots, no uneven tension.
Bright Attack, Musical Body
Stainless steel windings deliver a crisp, lively edge while keeping every note full and round — never harsh or thin.
HI-BEAM™ Bass Strings
From Studio to Stadium — The Pros Play Hi-Beams
Whether it’s Stanley Clarke shaping modern jazz or Muse, Bruno Mars, and Killswitch Engage commanding arenas, Hi-Beams provide the power, clarity, and endurance pros demand.
I was looking for something different and when I went to the Dragon Skin+ strings from DR, they were different from other coated strings that I'd used in the past. They have a chime to them without being too tacky sound and without being too bright and the feel and the tone with the Dragon Skin+ strings has been really good to me.5/5 JAY BUCHANAN, RIVAL SONS
DR Strings deliver exactly what I need—clarity, longevity, and stability without compromise. Their versatility lets me explore different sounds while always maintaining that crisp, defined tone I love. Every note stays in tune, feels smooth under my fingers, and brings out the best in my playing. If you want strings that truly support your sound, DR Strings is the way to go!5/5 CHENA LEO
DR strings provide a natural feel and full-bodied tone to my guitars, and the consistency from one pack to the next is top-notch! Because of their reliability and longevity, I have peace of mind whenever I'm setting up my guitars and performing on stage!5/5 KRIS G. - D'VAIN
I play Pure Blues on my electric, Dragon Skins on my resonator and Veritas on my acoustics... DR Strings .. Don't worry, they got me.5/5 BEX MARSHALL
I love DR guitar strings for their unparalleled tone and durability. DR strings deliver consistent clarity and richness, elevating my playing experience to new heights. Their longevity is unmatched, enduring countless hours of practice and performance without losing their brilliance. With DR strings, it’s not about just strumming a guitar, it’s empowering musical expression.5/5 SARAH SHERIFF
Tom gave me a set in 1994 and I ended my Dean Markley involvement the next day. We worked together on the Pure Blues strings and the Dragon Skin strings. Every guitar I have has DRs...and thats a lotta guitars!5/5 GREG PLATZER
