Try using a tuner on notes up and down the neck- DRs have appalling intonation but they do SOUND great. SITs have the best intonation from my experience

I use DR Sunbeams for round wounds. I love how they sound, but they feel super annoying until they wear in a bit. I use Ernie Ball Group strings for flats and they are disturbingly smooth in comparison!

I love DR strings on a 6.

[@Carolina_Big]

thats your signature sound and song keep it up Floof

[@5minuterevolutionary493]

why hate it :) I love flats on bass and guitar, and also there is more of that tone than people think in roundwounds on guitars like say a gibson mid sixties parlor, or a more recent archbacked guild... there is a cello-y quality in the high frets of the low strings that just goes into extra yummy with flatwounds. my dumb opinions :)

[@Stands-In-The-Fire]

I've never been a fan of DRs either, but I'm pretty sure I've only tried their Rounds. For flats I've usually used LaBellas or D'Addario, may have to give these a go next time I need new flats in (checks calendar) roughly a decade from now.

[@floofthebassplayer]

Just buy a pack now so that way you need to buy flats they're already aged to perfection lmao

[@Stands-In-The-Fire]

@@floofthebassplayer You're right, I've been doing it wrong this whole time! :D

[@JalenRawley]

I prefer the D'addario NYXLs, but had to get a set of DRs on short notice and they tore my fingers up. That's a good thing though, I needed some callous building, but they were grippy to a weird degree. All of my fingerpicked notes were late. So I swapped out for NYXLs after a couple rehearsals and they were SUPER slinky in comparison. Same gauge, just more flexible somehow. The DRs do sound great though, just not for very long.

Another great demo and another great shirt.....they sound pretty good considering their age and I'm not a flats guy
