Dragon Skin+ Coated Strings Are the Ultimate Bass String Upgrade

Dragon Skin Coated Strings Are the Ultimate Bass String Upgrade

The best bassists get that way because they’re always looking for ways to improve their sound — and so are the musical engineers at DR Handmade Strings. With Dragon Skin+ coated bass strings, they have changed the landscape once again by offering an upgrade that delivers an unbeatable combo of tone, longevity, balance and volume.

DR is already one of the biggest names in bass guitar strings and even coated strings. Notably, their colored bass strings and Black Beauties strings have established cult followings. It would be easy for DR to rest on its laurels. Instead, they developed Dragon Skin+ bass guitar strings with cutting-edge technology. We love these strings and there are several reasons we think you will, too.

A Micro Coating with Macro Impact

For decades, bassists have felt like they needed to choose between long string life and bright, cutting sound. That choice no longer applies thanks to Dragon Skin bass strings. DR has patented a micro-thin coating that offers excellent resistance to sweat, grime, humidity and skin oil. At the same time, it maintains excellent string resonance and feels like an uncoated string. Bassists get the best of everything with Dragon Skin+.

Chrome or Stainless Steel Winding? The Choice is Yours

However bright and loud you want your bass, Dragon Skin+ can pull it off. DR offers Quantum Nickel and stainless steel wrap wires for their bass strings. The Quantum Nickel plating is a unique formula that gives the strings a rich tone and excellent output, forging a strong connection to the pickups. For an even brighter and more enormous sound with maximum durability, get Dragon Skin+ stainless steel bass strings that continue to resist corrosion even after the coating wears off.

The Most Stable and Full-Bodied Core

Perhaps the most advanced part of Dragon Skin+ strings is one you can’t see — but you’ll hear and feel it. The company’s Accurate Core Technology™ uses a round core wire with locking grooves. This produces better projection, a fuller tone and more tuning stability than a normal hex core. Your bass strings will have even more chime and ring than uncoated strings! DR also precisely tuned the tension to make the strings more comfortable to play whether you finger-pick, use a plectrum or do some slapping.

So Many Strings, So Little Time

No matter what bass you play and how you play it, there’s a set of Dragon Skin+ strings for it. Their Quantum Nickel and stainless steel bass strings come in light, medium-light and medium gauges. Do you prefer a five-string bass? DR has light and medium Dragon Skin+ bass strings — and you can order them for multi-scale basses, too. They even make six-string coated bass strings for when you need to play the biggest fiddle possible.

Massive Sound That Lasts

When you want a fireball of thump behind every note, Dragon Skin bass guitar strings provide it. Play them for months on end while getting the same amazing sound during every show, jam session and home studio brainstorming.
