Customer reviews about DR Strings Drop-Down Tuning DDT-11

Strings to get!

Ivars V 06.01.2022

Great strings to get if you wish to downtune on 24.75 scale guitar. I use this in dropped C they work out great!
Pros:
* Wound strings feel tighter than strings from other brands, while feeling pretty much the same on the fretting hand
* Stay in tune really well. Don't stretch them by hand, let them settle in over night and retune when needed.
* When used on a short scale guitar, intonation is spot on.

Cons:
* DDT range has pretty limited options gauge wise. Some of the sets just don't make sense. A wider string gauge selection would be awesome!

Almost perfect balance

I use these for Drop C on a PRS SE and Drop B on an Ibanez. The gauges are a great fit and they don't feel too stiff or too loose, with the exception of the 6th string. I wish it was slightly beefier.

Their tone is a bit on the soft side, but they retain their clarity for long periods of time. I used to buy coated strings before, but I find the DR DDT lasts just fine anyway — I can use the extra money to buy more sets of strings and change them a tad more often.

Great sound and longevity!

Anonymous 24.11.2014

These are perfect for dropped tunings although I used them in extreme situation of constant tuning from E to C dropped. They behaved perfect and kept perfect tune for more than 6 weeks with still completely usable sound - no other brand gave me this longevity.
DR strings are not packed in vacuum bag - as I can see it doesnt change their properties BUT still - it would protect them in stored in not-so-perfect conditions that's why one star less in quality department. RECOMMENDED!

Sounds pretty good

Anonymous 07.06.2015

Normally I use Ernie Ball Beefy Slinky´s . My guitarist says thath I should use the DR Strings. So I deciede to order then. I think the DR-Strings has a very clear tone and in combination with my Bareknuckle Pickups you have a very "twangi" Sound with a little bit more treble.

Great for Drop tunings

Matti V. 16.09.2013

These strings are absolutely perfect for dropped tunings. They hold the tuning great and I can easily tune even as low as Bb or A with these without losing sound quality or grip. They keep tight and are very easy to play. The only drawback is that their thickness which can sometimes make playing harder.

Good strings for downtuning, keep tuning, not the brightest

Anonymous 03.07.2016

Deliver its promise to sound defined when drop tuned, i have it on an SG tuned down a hole step. They are more expensive than other brands, sound a tad duller but still defined, if you are not using these for downtuning i'm not sure it's worth the extra cash, they deliver on their promise tho, stay in tune and sound convincing when downtuning.

Good strings for lower tunings!

HannesVC 11.03.2014

I use these DR DDT-11 for Drop D and Drop C tuning for Hardrock/metal sounds and i'm happy with them.
They sound very balanced and they are logevity.
The strings are not too rough for longer playing sessions.
