Did I do good? Ernie Ball Slinky purchase on eBay

Sign in to disble this ad
I thought $200 for 23 sets of the strings I use most of the time was a good deal.

Did I do good?

Well if you look at the ebay ad...nevermind.

I'd say you did good if you have a lot of basses, intend to resell them for profit, or intend to play bass for a long time. So most likely, you did good.

I have 6 basses that I use all of the time (actually 8, but I use flats on 2 of them) and my strings of choice are EB Slinkys. I forgot that half of my basses are 5ers, but that isn't a big deal to me.

I will likely share the wealth here if the strings are as good as I expect them to be as I don't need 23 sets, but in Toronto I pay about $20USD per set for these and I do go through a set or more a month.

We shall see....
