DR LEGEND™ Polished Flatwound Bass Strings deliver the classic “thump” associated with vintage R&B, reggae, and traditional jazz bass tones. Built on a round core, they combine the warmth of polished stainless flatwrap with the flexibility and balanced harmonic response of round-core construction.
The polished stainless steel wrap provides a smooth, comfortable feel under the fingers while producing a warm, punchy, and fundamental-forward tone that sits naturally in a mix. Compared with many hex-core flats, LEGEND™ strings feel more supple and responsive, making them well suited for players who prefer a less rigid playing feel.
Designed with a 37-3/4" ball-to-taper length, LEGEND™ sets are intended for 34" or 35" scale basses and are also available in short scale versions. They are ideal for players seeking traditional flatwound character without sacrificing playability or musicality.
