Used Strings and Ball Ends

Sign in to disble this ad
Does anyone know of a place aside form TB that i could track down old and/or broken bass strings or even just ball ends? I know TB is ideal but im not sure how many people i could come across that would be willing to go out of there way to send something like that. Im hoping someone has a box or something of old strings they might part with.

I tried GC at one point in time and they wouldnt give my any even though they threw them out.

In case anyone was wondering why i want them, its somewhat school related.

Might be worth a try to ask one of the manufacturers or distributers. They might have blems they can send you.

Arts and crafts store?

Bring a ball end there and they will probably find it.

Maybe....????


Years ago I made bracelets out of them, on a E string... girls loved em

I also made a hanging door cover (like beaded entry) that was pretty neat
