The search for the right strings
A musician can spend their entire life searching for the right instrument – so finding the right strings should be made as easy as possible. After all, there's a genuine physical connection between players and their strings, which play a huge role in how an instrument feels. The DR Strings Dragon Skin+ DMP-10 Coated strings are a light-gauge phosphor bronze string set for mandolin, made using high-quality materials and an ultra-thin coating. Thanks to DR's patented manufacturing process, they offer exceptional longevity, yet without introducing any unfamiliar feel – the strings are barely distinguishable from uncoated ones. For anyone looking to give their instrument a real boost in dynamics and volume, DR Strings is a strong choice.
A patented coating
The technical design of the DR Strings Dragon Skin+ DMP-10 Coated strings is no simple matter; it reflects a very high level of engineering expertise. All but the very lightest strings are wound to ensure both a powerful tone and a comfortable playing feel. The way DR Strings puts this into practice is particularly well executed: The strings are built around a specially adapted steel core, which is wrapped with coated phosphor bronze. This process brings out the best qualities of the string. The Dragon Skin+ offers a premium playing feel, along with a full, rich tone characterised by the warm, distinctive sound of phosphor bronze, and a noticeable increase in output compared to uncoated strings. Taken together, this combination can lift a mandolin to the next level.
An accurate core
Where conditions might once have meant changing strings frequently, the DR Strings Dragon Skin+ DMP-10 Coated strings keep going for longer. This is thanks primarily to their outer wrap; it's highly resistant to corrosion and moisture, while also contributing to the strings' strong, warm resonance. The patented Coated Wrap Wire also ensures that the strings feel natural under the fingers, giving purists exactly the familiar response they expect. What comes through is a technologically refined string set that delivers across the board, both in sound and feel – no compromises.

An improved experience
Alongside feel and tone, tuning stability is absolutely essential when it comes to strings. Here too, the American manufacturer DR Strings has come up with a smart solution. Accurate Core Technology strengthens the core and evens out natural irregularities, allowing it to form a more consistent bond with the phosphor bronze winding, which helps the strings stay in tune even when they're played hard. The lightweight DR Strings Dragon Skin+ DMP-10 Coated set is gauged .010, .014, .024w, .036w, making it particularly easy to play. This makes the set a great option for beginners, as the left hand feels more comfortable on the mandolin's double courses, while more advanced musicians will also benefit from the ease of playing when moving between single-note lines and chord melodies.
