My experience with bassstringsonline.com part 2!

Jason rules.

Got ANOTHER order from him today. GHS Brite Flats and Bass Brites. He e-mailed me a few times letting me know it would be late because of the Bass Brites. Communication is key! I wasn't in any rush to get the strings, so I was fine with it... especially since Jason is one of the best dudes around.

Well, Jason made it impossible for me to pass up a special order. After talking to him all night, I placed an order for six sets of strings, including a perfect set of TI Jazz Flats.

I'm not at liberty to discuss prices, but I will post which strings I ordered in a bit (for those interested).

If you're not ordering strings from Jason, you're not ordering them right.

I just ordered a set of Dr. Lo rider nickels for my t40, I also got a Levy's strap and one of those planet waves tuners. Smoking prices on all three combined with the tb VIP pricing. Add to that it shipped within a half hour of ordering....now that's service

I don't know how Jason does it, but he ships faster than any other online retailer I've ever dealt with. Placed an order for package of screws from MF at the same time I bought a set of flats from BSO (Sunday). Both shipped Monday afternoon. The screws are languishing in the back of some truck just outside of Missouri, while the strings went from California to New Jersey overnight. Im in New York and I'll have my strings from BSO before a mega corporation with a world of shipping resources at its disposal even has my order within 300 miles of me. You go, Jason!

TI Jazz Flats SINGLES (.044, .057, .070, .100)

Ken Smith Compressors (.044, .062, .082, .105)

LaBella Quarter Rounds (.045, .063, .085, .107)
DR Hi-Beam Flats (.045, .065, .085, .105)

He made it very hard for me to pass up ordering this many sets.

More kudos for Jason. I needed a five string set for one of my Super J's to tide me over while Sheldon is re-formulating his sets. I was looking at the DR HiBeams, but couldn't tell from the info available on the page if the B was tapered. Had a short telephone conversation with Jason (while he was in traffic!) and he said that they would fit the Dingwall, but the B is not tapered. He recommended a Fedora set which is higher tension but has a tapered B. Cool - I've never tried Fedora. I place my order through the site and manage to miss the $2 upgrade for a tapered B. He catches my mistake and e-mails me. In short, he upgrades my order for free despite my willingness to pay. It's personal service like this that earns my loyalty! :cool:
