Best site for strings?
I’m looking to bulk order some strings and curious if any sponsors offer AGF discount codes? Trying hard to keep my spend in the “family” rather than giving Bezos even more $$....

Strings And Beyond are currently running a 15% off sale.
I use them (and I'm on the other side of the planet!) and they are excellent - outstanding customer service. https://www.stringsandbeyond.com/

I price shop amongst Strings and Beyond, Strings By Mail, Elderly Instruments, and Musician's Friend. Depending on what brands or types you need and the time of the year, anyone of them could be selling strings at a better price than the others. Amazon is about the worst for strings. I have never shopped for strings there. Whatever you do avoid ebay; counterfeits aplenty. ebay and Amazon have become havens for pirate affiliates.

Strings by mail has been my source for strings for years. I'm not sure if they offer AGF discounts, but they are a sponsor here. They do offer a discount for veterans.

I use Strings and Beyond sometimes, but MF accessory sales are usually better. For a bulk order, any MF 15% off sale should work and they almost always have one going.

Another Strings and Beyond vote. Very pleased with their service and pricing. They run specials frequently....some by manufacturer, free shipping, extra discounts, etc.

Thanks everyone - just saved $40 at Strings and Beyond with the discount code and got a grab bag worth of new options to try!

I'll second Sweetwater. I've never dealt with better customer service, in "guitar stuff" or anything else.
Bought strings from them yesterday, and within 3 minutes of clicking the "pay now" button I had a call from "Rob at Sweetwater" thanking me for my $25 order and telling me that the free shipping deadline was 15 minutes away, so I would get my order Friday (ordered on Wednesday afternoon). Just can't beat that.

I always look to sponsors first. I get my Martin strings from Shoreline, but SUS are direct from manufacturer.
