Strings that are made by hand??? I'll call supreme bullshit on that one. check their web site http://www.drstrings.com/ , not saying youre wrong, and i have no idea how guitar strings are manufactured, but the box the strings come in says "the handmade string", if it wasnt true, seems like they would have been called out on the claim long before now.

I've never gotten around to trying them, but DR has a couple of Dimebag signatures that are 9-48 and 9-50. I'd like it very much if Ernie Ball could see their way to making something like that for less money. And every single set designed for really low tunings is either too thin in the lows (it's usually a 13-56) or has drastic and unbalancing jumps between the 3rd & 4th string gauges. Buying a set of 13-56's and tuning to B is never as much fun as I remember it being, due to the string inadequacy. I use DRs pretty much all the time. Their strings cost maybe five or six dollars more than a set of slinkys, but they last forever and are made by hand in the U.S.A., somewhere in NJ, I think.
