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.

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 .012
You can't beat the tone, sustain, play-ability, or durability. Wonder why there are no coated round-core strings? They don't need it, that's why.
