more acoustic strings

Posted by: bjthomas44 <bjthomas44@...>

Thanks!   How do they ship you strings?  Do you keep them in a tube?

 

Has anyone tried http://www.webstrings.com ?  They have electric and bass strings as well as acoustic.

I buy all my strings from Euphenon http://www.hotworship.com/euphonon/.  They don't tell you what brand of strings they give you!  HOWEVER! they are right next to the Martin string company (and the picks they sell are martin).  I have noticed no difference between the Martin SP's and these strings.  They only sell strings in bulk smallest group being 1/2 doz. (which is fine with me since I'm a music minister and change strings every week or 2 anyway).  But you get the strings for about $2.50 a set. 

I know some people really like the Elixir's and other brands that do the silicon wrap on thier strings, but I don't. I've tried every kind of these strings, and found that they sound a little strange to me for the first several days, then they sound good for a day or 2.  Then the fuzziness takes over and I can't stand the sound of the fraying, buzz on my frets!

My Alvarez acoustic-electric came with Elixir's.  I like them and want to continue to have great strings (duh!). However, i'm looking for a more economical brand and type, etc.  Any suggestions, experiences?

Bought a set of Ernie Ball "Earthwoods" for my third guitar...an Applause (ovation) a/e.  They sound great, but it's only been three days or so.  Got them on sale for about $4.50.  That's primarily what sold them.

I've seen some online sales on Martin SP+ strings.  Has anyone used them or know someone who has?

Thanks...
