Most interesting to see someone take the time and effort to test all the strings so thoroughly on the same bass. Rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grimbeaver Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 great article, I always use DRs and have done for years, your better getting them direct from the states, if you get 3 sets or more its much cheaper. If anyone wants a good contact over there PM me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutToPlayJazz Posted September 12, 2009 Author Share Posted September 12, 2009 Yes, I use DR fatbeams exclusively on my jazz. They seem to last forever as well. Still very bright and zingy several months later... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinman Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Thanks OTPJ, that's really useful as I've just discovered why the lo-riders I have on my Jazz are not really the string for me. I'm off to change the for a set of MMs Ta Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicman20 Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 So...after reading that, the high beams are best for a lower tension? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
