For us who weren’t around when the last group buy took place it might be of interest to know how much each set would cost?
What's the standard shelf life for strings anyway?
I hope I’m not making Mikes life miserable when I say that I would also be more interested in Elexirs.

Coe, I'll split a gross w/ you.
And if there are others who want to jump in, that's fine too.
I could take a quarter gross, or a half, but would prefer to spread the joy around a bit.

Steve


I'm interested in a half gross of Lights and a quarter gross of Mediums

FYI ... I bought strings in the first go raound, about 3 or so years ago ... I keep them in the corrosion resistant bags provided, and then each gauge (lights and meds) are inside some 4 inch ABS pipe pieces capped at both ends .. the strings are still bright (untarnished) as the day I got them.

So .. they last a long time ....

Yes, depending on price - would rather do Elixirs.

As for the Elixrs, if there is continued support for that, I promise to take that up after we finish the AST deal. This thread is for D'Adarios which apparently has quite a following! Let's hold off on Elixr comments inthis thread, it's only gonna make Lance's job harder to sort through it all. Let's say 4 weeks and I will start an Elixr thread. (mid July)
