DR Support: Broken string?

Just a quick question. I bought some Hi-beams through BassStringsOnline, and but them on a week or so ago, and the string broke at the bridge not two minutes hence. Would I be able to contact DR for a free replacement? I've heard wonderful things about their customer service.

You can contact them and state your case. Only DR can answer that question.

I will shoot you a PM with instructions.

For fastest response I would contact BassStringsOnline directly

Unfortunately I can not always find threads

This happened to me years ago. The G string broke within minutes of putting it on. I wrote a letter to DR (this was in the pre internet and email days)
In the letter, I mentioned what gauge set and type of DR strings they were. A week later, I received a replacement G string AND a new set completely free of charge along with a letter of apology. I guess that's one reason why they have been my go-to string for 20 years.
