DR has always strived to produce the best strings possible. To ensure this, DR crafts all of their acoustic guitar strings by hand. They firmly believe that hand-made strings sound better than their machine wound counterparts, and with the accolades they have received over the past 20 years from all around the world, it's safe to say they are right. DR makes acoustic guitar strings for nearly every playing style, so you'll have no trouble finding the ones that best suit your needs. The choice of string almost always comes down to a very personal preference, whichever style sounds best to you is the type you should choose, but it never hurts to have a look at some of the options. Take the Zebra Medium Lite Acoustic-Electric Guitar Strings, for example. These strings offer a revolutionary design you can clearly see, as their coils alternate between nickel-plated steel and rare phosphor bronze wound on round core. This design will really bring the sound of your guitar to life with richer, fuller tones as you strum.
DR's NEON strings are also an incredibly popular option, especially if you're looking to really stand out on stage. These strings glow under UV light, and are sure to captivate audiences every time you take the stage. And best of all, these coated strings are built just as great as they look. As a matter of fact, they generally last three to four times as long as their uncoated counterparts, so your sound can shine night after night.
DR Strings have developed strong bonds with the music community. These bonds have helped to establish them as the go-to brand for some seriously well-known acts. Artists such as Portugal the Man, Vampire Weekend, Coheed & Cambria, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, and more all strum DR Strings when they break out their acoustic guitars. Handmade in the USA, these acoustic strings are perfect, whether you're playing in the living room with family or taking the stage for a headlining slot at a summer festival.
