DR Strings Employee | | | | | I'll go with DR here not because I'm an employee, but because I truly love the look, feel, and sound of DRs (especially the colored ones). Best strings on the market by far IMO

| | Registered User | | Join Date: May 2007 Location: Athens, Greece | | I voted DR. Sunbeams for me, though you may find another set more to your liking. On a semi-related note, I have a strange urge to string my Squier P-bass with Fender nylons... Talk about different ends of tone spectrum...
