Review: Incredible feel! - I love the look of them as much as the feel, they're just lovely and silky and LOUD. Very good!
Review: #1 strings to purchase no matter the gauge. - I've strung virtually every guitar I own and have set-up with these no matter the gauge or guitar and basses for a long time. DR Strings are IMHO the best handmade strings in the world and out of their entire range the BlackBeauties are the best (once you get used to them which truly doesn't take long). Not here to name drop so I will just say that one of their leading endorsers turned me onto BlackBeauties when they were first released, I was already using a few other DR String sets. After noodling for about 15 minutes I had 'the feel' and I've not looked back since. These strings hold their tune, feel fantastic to use, last way longer than any other brand I've used outside of DR Strings and even some of the DR String range. Some people take a little longer to get 'the feel' of BlackBeauties but those I've introduced them to, be it bass or guitar have switched to these and stayed with them like myself. The only drawback is when it comes to six string bass sets, the availability and cost in the UK is hard to deal with, almost double the cost as they are in the USA and very short supplies in the UK. Now if only they'd do their Drop D strings in the same finish.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great looking strings
*by A***R on 23 January 2026*

Bought these for their looks as I play a fully back Epiphone LP. Generally love them, although they tend to last a little less time than my go standards (ErnieBall). Slight loss of tome but nothing too noticeable. They feel great and to my mind are reasonably priced.
