GREATEST GUITAR STRINGS EVER???

Unread post by philtheman » Tue Sep 05, 2006 9:48 pm

They may possibly be!! They are DR Extras and the rock. You know that crisp sort of "twangy" sound of your favorite strings right when you put them on and tune them up? You know how they "break in" and loose some of that great tone? Well guess what, these dont...at all. I thought that they would, but after 2 weeks of them braking in, they still sound just as amazing as when I first put them on! I urge you to at least try them. And post whether or not you like them, why you did or didnt, what you used to use, and what guitar you put them on. I put them on my Martin 000X1 and it sounds fantastic!!!!

----Peace

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": "I once saw this in a movie, it was about a bus that had to keep it's "speed" above 50, and if it's "speed" dropped, it would explode...I think it was called "The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down"!
