Growlier DR strings

Sign in to disble this ad
Which set are growlier - the Hi-beams or the Lo-riders? I am thinking gauges 40-100 on the hi-beams and 45-100 on the Lo-riders. I want to achieve a growl like Dirk Lance of Incubus but I still want to slap.

Bro as it's been discussed on these forums, growly is so subjective.

I could build up an argument for both strings being growlier than the other.

But for the sake of this discussion, I'm going to pick Lo Riders as the growlerererer of the 2. It seems to have a tighter, punchier midrange as it's hex-core.

Lo-Riders on my G&L 2500 Tribute sure do bring out some growl.
