They send you a wound and non-wound version. KEWL.

I got 5 packs of these guys, no complaints.

Wish this was available for the UK.

Aye.

Would any USer be interested in buying up some and sending them along? I've been converted to 11s with a wound G after having them on this tele and I'd never find them that cheap, even with postage from the US.

I'd be happy to help out. PM what you need.

Why no 10's?
I bought a bunch of the 11's last time, but I didn't like them.

I was hoping to buy some of these last time but waited too long. I got 5 sets from this lot. I would have got more but I'm considering switching to flatwounds. It can't hurt to have 5 sets of regular strings sitting around though. The price is too good to say no to.

they're not really that regular, they're heavy bottom.

No free shipping to Canada? Stupid. I checked shipping for 2 mediums and two .9s, and it said shipping was 32.33...

WHAT?!

Damn. Good deal, definitely need some new strangs.

onedaycloser · Post by **onedaycloser** » Sun Oct 17, 2010 3:54 pm

Sweet, I've got 6 packs of the 11s and a cable coming my way now.

I don't think I've used nickel strings before though, will be interested in hearing the difference in tone.

This is over now, but if you're willing to give them a try...
