Yeah, I'm a Dean Markley endorser, but DR makes a fine string and this price is absurd. Blowout, clearance, clerical error, who knows? But $8 a pop, I just ordered a dozen.  http://www.amazon.com/DR-Strings-Lo-...5481208&sr=8-1 |

JR (the store on the Amazon site) does not carry those strings. I let both Amazon and JR know. I just had to send mine back the other day.
Make sure and read your receipts from the transaction. The Amazon one says they are the DR bass strings, the JR receipt says DR acoustic strings.

But I ordered 3 sets. I use those DR strings on guitar anyway so there's no downside. |

I have a bunch of guitar gigs in April so it's just as well. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
