The DSM-10 is a complete set of mandolin strings from DR's Dragon Skin Series. The Dragon Skin strings are phosphor bronze strings with an octagonal core and they are coated with DR's proprietary K3 coating. The K3 coating is incredibly popular with mandolin players as it gives the strings the same clarity and articulation as uncoated strings. But with the K3 coating, they are protected against corrosion and therefore have an extra long life where they retain their fine sound.
All DR strings are handcrafted by specialists at DR's factory in New Jersey, USA.
DR bases its business on a unique philosophy where great emphasis is placed on craftsmanship while being one of the string manufacturers that puts the most resources into innovation and product development. All employees at DR play themselves, and to become a string maker at DR you have to go through a thorough and extensive training of 6 months. The result is strings that retain tone and intonation longer than conventional strings.
In this way, DR has established its name among the world's leading string manufacturers, and among their fans we find some of the world's leading instrumentalists.
