DR Strings DR Pure Blues PHR-11

DR Strings · string

DR Pure Blues strings use a round-core construction with pure nickel wrap wire, aiming for a warmer, more vintage-leaning tone than the brighter stainless steel strings common on modern sets. The PHR-11 gauge starts at .011 for the high E, a medium-heavy set favoured by players who bend less aggressively but want fuller tone and sustain. Derek Trucks, whose slide-heavy style depends on sustain and a warm, vocal tone, is associated with this string set.
