Definitely some of our favorite acoustic sets, these sunbeams from DR are incredibly bright sounding, and the sustain is remarkable.
They are round core based and extremely flexible.
Gauges: 11-15-22-30-40-50
Sunbeam strings are handwound upon round cores which give a terrific result..wonderful sustain..remarkable sustain. The tone does not seem to decay as do other phosphor bronze strings, which we think of as decaying in a curve. The Sunbeam phosphor seems to sustain in a straight line, until the sound "falls off". The Sunbeam phosphor strings are also musically bright and rich sounding.
Scale Length: 38"
Material: Phosphor Bronze. Round Core Wire. Ball End.

Dr Sunbeam .011
I use the 12's on my Maton and the 11's on my Seagull Artist Mosaic CW as it thinks it's a Les Paul. I've tried quite a few acoustic strings, and nothing sounds better or plays nicer than the DR Sunbeams.
