DR Strings Black Beauties Electric Guitar Strings

Pre-coated before winding and finished with a corrosion inhibiting coating, the DR Black Beauties are highly resilient without sacrificing playability.

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 K3â„¢ ultra-hard coating, delivering longevity, more projection, fewer unwanted overtones, and outstanding clarity and articulation.

Bought these with my expectations not very high! Wow they bring the look, feel and sound I was looking for! I might never try different kind of strings again!

Great quality! String coating wear the pick hits but I play with a thick 1.5 mm and hit the strings very aggressively! Still sounds great! A+

Wish they could give them away! Unfortunately, they need to stay in business! Compared to other coated strings real value! A+
