I ordered a set of GHS short scale Bass Boomers on Tuesday. They just came in the mail. From California to Michigan in three days. This guy does not play around! I don't know how it can be any better. Highly recommended!!

WoW, That is pretty damn good.. I ordered from Just Strings in New Hampshire on Monday Morning 10:00 am and had the strings Tuesday at 2:30 pm when the USPS came Im in RI which doesn't even compare at all to your travel time or journey but it was pretty cool to see them the next day..

Thank you!

I am glad you appreciate the quick shipping!

If this is who I think this is, the order was placed Wednesday Morning

Generally shipping is 2-3 Business Days (Including Saturday) anywhere in the US since we use USPS Priority Mail.

So Wednesday - Friday is to be expected.

Enjoy the strings!

Just waiting for funds to become available and I'll be ordering a custom BEAD set of DR highbeams. Good to hear the positive reviews.

I told Jason I'd place a decent order when I get my P-bass in. It should be done this weekend, or so Dan hopes.

You'll be getting a PM soon, big guy. I might be ordering five sets.

I just checked out my credit card record. You are right about it being Wednesday.

I am sorry that I forgot to mention that you are a TB member. I am suprised at how much better and deeper the new strings are than the originals that came on my SS Jaguar with no break-in at all.

I just had a similar excellent experience. I had a SNAFU order, and immediately emailed a correction request - at 9pm on a Friday night. Within minutes, I had a return email from Jason, clarifying the issue. We emailed back and forth so that he could try to duplicate my error and correct it. This is above and beyond, IMHO. So, kudos, Jason!

And he's a TB member. I saw the posts in your link. That's how I found the site. The word needs to get out. Then we all benefit.

I'd really like to see some R. Cocco strings on your site, is this possible?

Otherwise, really interested on picking up my strings exclusivly on your site, musicshop doesn't carry enough types or brand comparing to you. I think that the futur of bass strings shoping is online and you offer a great service!
