Product Description Black Beauties electric guitar strings with K3 Technology. The K3 coating is the first coating that players report, "sound as good or better than uncoated strings."

They feature a hexagonal core wire and a nickel-plated steel wrap wire to maintain brightness and feel. All strings in the set are coated with a je

Review: Bright Tone and Great Feel Right Out of the Pack - These DR electric guitar strings sound great right out of the pack. They have a bright, clear tone without being harsh, and the feel is smooth and comfortable under the fingers. Bends are easy, and tuning stability has been solid after the initial stretch.

I’ll definitely keep these in my regular rotation.
