The "Extra Heavy" Gauge Designed for Drop Down
The Dr Strings DDT-12 Drop Down 12-60 are aimed at electric guitarists who tune down without sacrificing definition. Thanks to their extra heavy gauge, they maintain a controlled feel under the fingers, reduce the "floppy" effect of strings in low tuning, and help keep a firm attack-ideal for powerful riffs, palm muting, and tight rhythms.
