Just a heads up for anyone in the UK, CPC sell a brand of strings called Cheetah (also called Johnny Brook on eBay). The quality is ace and they only cost £1.50 a set.
I thought it was a good find that was worth sharing.

Cheetah Strings

Ah I used Elixirs for ages, the problem was they just snap very easily - and I'm a Jazz player...Fran wrote:Great link during Broken Britain! I'll give these a go. Alternatively i was going to try them Elixir strings that last forever...
Also the postage from cpc kills the low price, so I'd pick up a set on ebay if you want to give them a go. At £2.19 they're not the bargain of the century, but if you like them a bulk order from cpc is way cheaper.

They're also sold as fake fender strings only as 9s though (link)
