Acebassmusic Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 ....and for the 5 stringers amongst us they have these at Amazon It's a long time since I bought a good set of 5 strings for £15 a pack 😮 I have used EXL170-5 strings before but to be honest I did have to do some searching to try and work out what EXL170-5TP were......doh!.....Twin Pack 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asingardenof Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 If I didn't already have three sets in my cupboard, along with a brace of the XT equivalents, then I'd be all over this, but you can have too much of a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 That's fantastic, my home strings at a fantastic price - that's me stocked up! Thanks for the heads up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 @kevin_lindsay @three @Acebassmusic @MichaelDean @Leonard Smalls @sPiKi @12stringbassist @asingardenof @neepheid and @everyone! And, of course if you sign up for D’Addario Player’s Circle, you can earn points off of every purchase (so that’s two sets of points if you bought a double pack!) Oh and sign up asap and you can have 50 points on me each to get started! https://bit.ly/3iQMRam (This is an official D’Addario link!) (I’ve got loads of stuff from the circle over the years, including a free t-shirt recently! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acebassmusic Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 My twin pack was originally scheduled for the 12th Dec......now it seems they're coming tomorrow! 😃 I too am a member of the Circle but my points collection is growing at a much slower pace than my "wants list" 🤣 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checking the tracking details it says they are in Bergamo, Italy. I online chatted with an Amazon rep yesterday and was promised that I would be getting them. Maybe they are all being shipped from Italy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin_lindsay Posted November 19 Author Share Posted November 19 I ordered four packs (two different orders, each order for two twin packs) The first two packs came from France. Delivery took two days for this order. The most recent two packs are coming from Italy. Scheduled for delivery on Thursday for these two packs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted November 19 Share Posted November 19 Umm, just as well I'm not in a hurry for mine! "New estimated delivery date: December 27, 2024 - December 30, 2024" Can you no find any D'addario XLs before then? People must have overdone it a bit - price is back up to about normal now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cetera Posted November 19 Share Posted November 19 Price is still £18.99 on mine, but delivery date (Prime) is Sun 29th Dec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin_lindsay Posted November 19 Author Share Posted November 19 I think Amazon would have experienced loads of bargain-seeking bassists placing orders. When the twin pack was shoeing as £18.99, the single set of the same strings was also listed at £18.99!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
