spongebob Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Done a search, but can't find anything....hope I'm not breaking any rules here (apologies of so). I always buy my strings online - normally Stringbusters or Stringsdirect. I've always found them the cheapest and most reliable to buy from. How about everybody else? Is there somewhere cheaper?? Flatwounds are now about £30 a shot for D'addario Chromes?? Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markstuk Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Chromes for less than £30 posted here [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DAddario-ECB80-Bass-Chromes-Flatwound-4-strings-40-95-/330479546654?pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item4cf21db11e"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DAddario-ECB80-Bass-...=item4cf21db11e[/url] [quote name='EssentialTension' post='980807' date='Oct 7 2010, 06:29 PM'][url="http://www.lordofthestrings.com/"]http://www.lordofthestrings.com/[/url] [url="http://www.stringstar.com/"]http://www.stringstar.com/[/url] was doing 10% off for Basschatters - not sure whether that's still going.[/quote] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoppo75 Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 +1 for stringbusters. Super quick delivery and excellent prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I`ve recently started getting my strings from GAK, as they had both better prices, and cheaper delivery charges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongebob Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 Thanks! Got a few more options now. Ordered a set of Chromes from Stringstar on Friday.....before the 2pm cut-off. Didn't get the yesterday, or any e-mail saying they've been sent.....hoping to get them tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gadge Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I suggest you also check out [url="http://www.soundunlimited.co.uk"]Sound Unlimited[/url] for string prices that are amongst the lowest. As an example, compared to that earlier [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DAddario-ECB80-Bass-Chromes-Flatwound-4-strings-40-95-/330479546654"]eBay link[/url] for D'Addario ECB80 Bass Chromes Flatwound 4 strings 40-95, for £25.00 + £1.70 Standard delivery, Sound Unlimited sell the [url="http://www.soundunlimited.co.uk/product_776_DAddario_ECB80_40-95.html"]same item[/url] for £24.10 + £1.25 delivery and, unlike the eBay sale, if you were to buy 5 sets the delivery cost would only increase to £1.75 total.
