Colored String Help

[iriegnome]

I am leaving for Jamaica to play 4 shows there in March. I am thinking of doing something that I think is pretty silly, but kind of cool. I am thinking of changing my strings on my Trans Blue Modulus to DR Peacock Blue strings. 2 questions -
1) Are there other choices for blue coated (or whatever) strings?
2) Best price/place to find them (I do not have a GC anywhere close)

Anybody?

DR is the only one I can think of making blue strings. You can always order them off musicians friend.

DR Peacock Blue. Seeing your in WI, Try the Music-Go-Round By you, they carry the coated strings by me. Elderly.com has them aslo. you save if you buy more. shipping is fast, being based out of MI

Silly or not...I'd make sure you try these strings. I hated coated strings until I tried the DRs I got as a gift...they're now my favorite string!

Maybe see if you can find green, yellow and red- Rastafarian colors, or maybe thematic, if you will.

DR also makes the Cool Blue strings, which I have on my LPB J 4 and 5 strings. Unfortunately, I don't have a pic to post at the moment. The DR website doesn't seem to have any pics of them either, but perhaps some of the string vendors do. I think they look good against the LPB with a white pickguard, especially on the maple fretboard. The Peacocks were just too turquoise for me.
