Dr fat beams review.

They have an exceptional low e string that just rings feels and sounds fantastic. I usually run nickels on it but the fat beams sound awesome. If you play 4 string this is not a concern. I have a set of these on my alder rosewood j bass.

Ive been playing bass almost 25 years and im still currently active let me enlighten you all on something the marcus miller fat beams are awesome. Reviewed in the united states on august 14 2018 ive been using dr hi beams for a very long time they sound great and deserve a 5 star rating but the fat beams series are not as punchy as i expected. I m not a fan of dr strings for this reason. They have a nice balanced response not overly bright but very present even volume across the strings.

They are steel roundwound and have a round core. I like them slightly better than hi beams. Similar to the hi beams smoother and fatter. Fat beams are the signature string of innovative world class bassist marcus miller.

Testing dr fat beams izzionbass. Love dr bass strings and these fat beams are a favorite of mine. Similar to the hi beams smoother and fatter. They are steel roundwound and have a round core.

Generally fat beams won t do that because they are on a round core but there is still a danger of it. Fat beams are the signature string of innovative world class bassist marcus miller. String life is about average compared to other brands. I m mostly a finger player as opposed to a slapper but if you need to pop the response stays even.

I play metal country jazz blues classic rock the list goes on and these strung up to a jazz bass are as ive said the best there is out there hands down. The a d and g strings are very close to dr hi beams in feel and tone but with a slightly looser feel. Check him out for a variety of reasons as well as to hear some characteristics of these strings.
