About another string thread... (and this font looks different!),

I got my strings from Sweetwater in the mail today... I ordered a set of the Flex Core 11-52's and a set of the Flex Core 12-54's and out of sheer curiosity I ordered a set of Martin SP (Superior Performance) 11-52's, which are 50 cents (1/2 US dollar for you fureigners

) less than the Flex Cores hoping maybe I can save a few cents per set in the future.... and I want to report, YES, I can! woo-hoo! They sound great!!!!!

Garland ,

Don't think I've tried the Martin SP strings will have to give them a try, as I do like, the Martin Authentic strings .
But the price of guitars strings is getting quite expensive, the Martin Authentic strings are £10 per set we're only £7 a couple of months ago.

Yes your Avatar has gone .
I bet a quarter is 25 cents.

My recent set of elixirs were $21, they better last a year like the last set

Seagulls live 40 + years....so should our guitars
