DR Strings PB5-40 Pure Blues Lite 5-String (40-120)

The modern American bass player uses elements from many styles of music to personalize their sound, so their strings need to be up to the task and respond to whatever the music demands. Pure Blues bass strings are made with a unique combination of materials and manufacturing techniques for a sound that combines the best of classic and contemporary. DR Pure Blues bass strings combine the warm tone of pure nickel with the brightness and edge of stainless steel for a rich and tonally balanced string that is perfect for players who demand versatility. Whether you play fingerstyle, with a pick, or slap, your bass will come alive with a full bottom, colorful mids, and bright articulate highs. DR's proprietary new alloy combines the smooth feel of pure nickel with the punch and brightness of stainless steel. Round core strings ensure 100% contact with the wrap wire. “These strings have more sustain and flexibility,” says Victor Wooten. Making our bass strings by hand allows us to closely monitor quality, make micro adjustments throughout the winding process, and add a human element that can’t be duplicated by a machine.
