I have tried to trick Amazon with two different orders now. By including bass strings along with a mix of other prioritized and non-proritized merchandise.

And both times the OTHER non-prioritized merchandise gets sent with the prioritized stuff. But, the bass strings remain in limbo.

Are the strings stocked and sold by Amazon or is it some other entity selling through the Amazon website? In Canada, the musical instrument gear listed on Amazon is actually from Cosmo music and ships from there.

I will continue to buy from Fretnation even if @SLaPiNFuNK got banned.

Yes they are stocked by Amazon.

I bought Stainless Low Riders from Fretnation, but they were having a big delay. So I tried to trick Amazon into sending me some Super Steels, sooner.

It's not quite a Thunderbird.

The craftsmanship and attention to detail will take your breath away.

Good arguments on both sides of the fence for black vs. white pickguard:
WHITE: Pops on stage
BLACK: Bassa$$ looking (gives it that mean Gibson RD look)

Another consideration is that the holes on the black pickguard (eBay) line up perfectly with a Gibson T-Bird, but not so much with my Epi VP. A few do, but for several of the holes, I'd have to make a second hole. Not sure if I want to go there...

The white definitely does seems to pop on stage.

Hah. I use GK watts.

LOL - and great watts they are!
Seriously - I've come to the conclusion that watts are not all equal. I've had amps that stated a given watt output but were much more powerful and had more headroom than other amps with higher stated watts. So there might just be something to that GK watts statement of yours. In essence GK watts might be louder than Beringher watts. :D
