Want that vintage bass tone? try the DR Sunbeams

[@Mick_Mars]

Jesus don’t want me for a sunbeam

Sunbeams do well on active basses also and respond well to any active tone shaping. I have them on two Stingrays and a Sadowsky Metroline. They are very balanced and are my idea of what a bass guitar should sound like unless you really want to melt faces when playing.

I have the fat beams currently on my p-bass and I love them. This video is making me consider the sunbeams next time I restring. The pure blues in your comparison video also had me interested. Pure blues for my j and sunbeams for my p. DR makes the nicest feeling round wound.

If you haven't already, you should test out the lo riders

The DR Sunbeams strings are using vintage specs how so? its a core wire with nickel plated wrap wire but where is the vintage specs?

[@djaxupjazz]

they are soft, fat sounding and also sound like well broken in rounds pretty fast. I like them, very special kind of strings.

Great sounds ! Always wanted to try this brand, now I will buy them.

I love my Sunbeams! They do sound great on my Tony Franklin fretless! Nice selection of songs to demo these. They are flexible and have a nice feel. I tried them on my Fender Am Pro II when I first got it, but preferred he punch of the Fender 7250. However, after listening to this, I just ordered another set to try them again. Thanks for reviewing them. PS, and they are endorsed by two of my favorites - Adam Clayton and Tony Franklin.

I've got Sunbeams on my fretless P and absolutely love them. Hi-Beams on my Epi Thunderbird. DR just makes great strings. They're the smoothest feeling rounds, to me.

Love my Sunbeams! Which one you prefer for a rock tone, Sunbeams or Pure Blues?

[@PaulDelBelloYT]

Pure Blues have more bite in my book !
