I was looking around, comparing prices for a set of Deep Talk'in flats and was surprised to find them for $10.00 less here at Elderly.
Just wanted to pass it along.

Their prices seem to be VERY low on all brands of strings. Anyone bought from them?

Elderly is good people. I've bought a few things from them - including my '68 P bass.

It seems like everybody is at $42-50 for La Bellas except for Elderly and Imperial Guitar. I have no idea why.

Neil at Imperial is just a few miles from the factory (LaBella) and he's willing to sell more strings for less profit, simple. Can't think of a reason not to buy from this guy! His service is great too.

I noticed they only have certain gauges. If they stocked them in standard gauge, they'd have a new loyal customer.

Dang! Elderly has the short scale strings I need on back order, and they don't carry the specific long scale flats I want. They're good people, too....

I like dealing with them. I bought a set of Pyramid Golds when they had a 20% off string sale last year. Normal price $60 with the discount $48, just low enough to take a chance. Now they are my favorite strings.

I buy from both Elderly and Imperial and both have been great to deal with.
