Overview

Black coated bass strings with rich tone and extended durability.

The DR Strings BKB-45 Black Beauties medium 4-string bass strings, 4-pack brings bold sound and a cool look to your bass. These strings use a round core inside, which gives you rich tone and makes each note stand out. The black coating is not just for style—it keeps the strings from rusting or getting worn out. DR Strings uses their own K3 coating so the strings last a long time and stay smooth under your fingers. The set covers the most common gauges, so you get strings that feel solid but not too stiff. Famous players like Geezer Butler trust these strings for their sound and comfort. You get four in this pack, so you have extras ready for your next show or practice.

DR Strings Help Bass Players Get Noticed on Stage

Musicians who want their bass to look different and sound clear will like these strings. The black finish stands out under stage lights and makes your instrument look sharp. The round core and special coating mean you can play hard without hurting your hands. If you worry about blisters or sweat ruining your strings, these hold up longer than regular sets. Each time you play, your notes will come through strong in band rehearsals or recordings. Strings that stay fresh and feel good help you play longer without needing to stop for repairs. That means more music and less hassle every day.

Features

  • Patented K3 coating makes strings last longer and resist wear
  • Round core design helps deliver warm, full bass tones
  • Black finish adds style and stands out on stage
  • Smooth feel reduces finger blisters during long practice or gigs

Elevate your bass playing with DR Strings BKB-45 Black Beauties Medium 4-String Bass Strings—featuring K3 coating for extended life, legendary tone, and a bold black finish trusted by pros like Geezer Butler.
