Elixer Bass Strings Available Anywhere?

Anyone know of a retailer that still has Elixer bass strings? I've tried to order from Sweetwater, Best Bass Gear, JustStrings and others, and my backorders keep getting cancelled, saying they can't get them anymore and don't know when they will. Looking for .045-.105. I've been using Elixers for 15 years. Whatever comes out of my fingertips kills a brand new set of uncoated strings in 2 sets. I've tried other brands of coated strings but nothing comes close to Elixer. Hoping I can find some. Thanks!
 
Just ordered 5 sets. If they turn out to in fact be in stock as advertised, you're a life saver! Thanks so much!:thumbsup:

I once exchanged emails with a fellow named Tim Kamak there. You can contact him at [email protected] if you want to find out exactly how many sets are in stock.

I came across with this particular dealer purely by accident a few months ago when I was doing a google search for GHS Progressives to see if anyone still had the old ones in stock. Tim told me they had a few sets in stock :), but also told me they didn't ship anything outside the US, which meant I was out of luck as I live in Canada :(.

Glad I've been able to help a fellow TB'er. :thumbsup:

Tim hooked me up! He called and said he has 4 sets left in stock. He said he remembers you and appreciated the referral! Thanks again!!
