    What is going on with DR and bass strings

    For the last two years I have been having an increasingly hard time finding DR bass strings anywhere. The inventory at stores is very random, and even online sellers have trouble getting them quickly. Now it seems like no one has my Sunbeam 45-130 set. Is anyone else having trouble getting what...

    Is this a bum E string? Crazy Sunbeam taper lol

    Went to put some new 45-105 Sunbeams on my 34” scale aluminum bass & this happened. Looks like the machine stopped winding it around the second fret (this is a photo of the string up to tension): I thought maybe it was because it’s a thru body bridge but I just finished installed a set of...

    La Bella Rx Nickel Plated RX-N5D vs DR Sunbeams 45-130? Help for trials needed

    Any experience with both these sets? Both are nickel plated. Both are round wound. However... LaBellas are half the price of the DR's. I've got NYXL's on my Fender Jazz 5 string but not thrilled. I've got Sunbeams on my Squier 4 string Jazz (with Aguilar noiseless pups) and digging the sound...

    LookIng for a string recommendation: currently use 45-105 DR Sunbeams

    I like the slightly warmer than average roundwound tone that they have, but I'd like a little more tension.

    Just ordered some Sunbeams. Thoughts?

    For my active Carvin LB70. What should I expect? (Other basses: Mex J with DiMarzios and Fender 9050 flats, Hofner with LaBella flats...of course!) So how about some Sunbeam users thoughts?

    Are there any strings halfway between DR Sunbeams and D'Addario Nickel XL's?

    So far, these are my two favorite strings that I've ever tried. I love the big bottom end and growly low mids of the Subeams. I love the sparkly hi-mids of the XL's. Unfortunately, neither string set has what the other set has, tone-wise. Are there any strings you guys can think of that are a...

    Flats with similar tension and flexibility as DR Sunbeams

    This may be a shot in the dark, but has anyone found a set of flats that is similar in tension and flexibility to DR Sunbeam nickel rounds and that won't require a ton of adjustment to the instrument after making the switch? Thanks!

    How to tell DR Pure Blues from Sunbeams on a bass
