I think there is a site that the guys around here use for strings. Someone will probably post it.

I wish they'd throw light top heavy bottom on there, or some heavier strings. I need that 30, 42, 52 setup at the bottom otherwise my strings get a little bit too flubby when I tune down.

Re: HUGE STRING SALE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How long do these strings last? Would there be a problem if they sat for like a year before I put them on?

Good question, but I can't imagine that the strings would go bad. D'Addario string are sealed in a plasic bag so they won't get any oxidation on them. I would think you would be good to go for a year.

I'm an Ernie Ball man for life, but a deals a deal.
One funny thing though, I bought a pack of really heavy d'addario strings for my B tuned guitar and only got 5 in that factory sealed plastic thing [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: HUGE STRING SALE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The concept is great but I stayed away from this bulk pack. As a D'addario dealer, I've purchased this before, and the deal on MF is GREAT but you loose 30-50% of the strings puling them out of the box as they get intertwined and snagged up inside the box and many come out bent and deformed.
That's why they are blowing them out.
but still with the amount of loss, you will still get your $ worth.
As for string life, with D addarios, I feel there should be a "born on date". they do seem to degenerate with age. I've been playing them for about 15-17 years so I know when I get an older pack vs. a new one.
