My experience with bassstringsonline.com part 2!

I'm always watching for more GHS strings to get into the bass bin.

Mmmmm.

What Kind?

I have two sets that will be in there sometime next week when the singles get here... They are pressure wounds...

Let me know what you are looking for and I can see what I can do... ;)

Oh, I saw your WTB post about the MXR M87 Compressor... I wish I could ship them internationally...
 
Dude... this bass strings online guy NAILED it !!!

Wow!!

I was asking for a string to tame the lows & bring up the mids & highs... he recommended Dean Markley Helix Steels

Freaking EXACTLY what I needed, a totally different bass, what I expected from it when I bought it.

TRUST THIS DUDE
 
I live in Turkey. My order for 3 string sets consisting of:

Ernie Ball Flatwound (55, 75, 90, 110)
D'Addario Chromes Flatwound (50, 70, 85, 105)
Fender Stainless Steel Flatwound (55, 70, 90, 105)

Has just arrived.

It is next to impossible to find heavy gauged flatwounds here. I will definitely buy more from your online shop in the future in order to try almost every brand of flatwounds...

Next time I am thinking about ordering GHS, Rotosound and La Bella Heavy gauged flatwounds.

Thank you very much indeed :)
 
As with most everyone else, I've had excellent service from BSO. The strings arrived a week after shipping. Jason is very knowledgeable. Finally got around to putting them on the jazz :)

Just had an awesome experience with Jason at bassstringsonline.com! I was able to purchase the Dunlop recessed/flush mount strap ends from Jason as a special order, but ended up receiving a regular whole set of the Dual-lok styled ones. I sent Jason an email about it and 10 mins later got a super fast response with an apology and letting me know he is sending me out the correct strap ends today. Wow, what can I say. Top-notch customer service second to none. Thanks again Jason!
 
Sorry about that. Slight miss-understanding between the shipping department and me. I have been in Florida the last week so will be back soon.


Ernie Ball Cobalt lovers! Singles are now available! Cobalt players who want a High-C? .032 is now available as well!

We have added an Ernie Ball Cobalt Build your own Custom String Set to the site as well.
 
Gotta give a shout out!!

I ordered my strings, got an email saying the were out of stock, but expecting a delivery. 3 or 4 days later I emailed asking about the status, andlet them know I was hoping they'd be here in time for a show this weekend. Jason told me they were expected that day... fast forward 3 days, I just got an email saying they were in my mailbox!!

That is outstanding service! You have my business and anybody else I can talk into using you, and I promise to be shouting this from the rooftops!

My hat off to you Jason, and my extreme gratitude for saving my bacon (and bank account)!!
 
For those of you who also travel the six string side of the street as I do. My first Guitarstringsonline order filled and shipped late Wednesday afternoon and arrived around 2:30 PM today. That's 48 hours or less from California to Colorado.

So tell all of your guitarists and other six stringer friends that you know where they can get the best prices and service on guitar strings and accessories as well. You'll have another success story to tell. :bassist:

That's that hocus pocus stuff I'm talking about. And then there's stickers. Gotta love it.
 
Just want to add more excellent feedback to Jason and his company. Ordered a set of Labella flats on Wednesday. They arrived yesterday. 48 hours from California to Upstate NY. Incredible. All of my string purchases will be going through BassStringsOnline. Thanks,Jason, great company.
