I'm not one to do a lot of shopping around. They are one of my go to sources and have been for years. I have an order on the way as we speak.

Great service, especially with free shipping over $35 US, to either the states or Canada!

Yup, both thumbs up!

They have sales a couple times a year. I stock up and I'm good until the next sale!

I use Strings & Beyond almost exclusively for all my string needs. They are responsive and fast and they have not messed up any of my orders over about the last 10 years.

When I find someone good to work with, I stick with them.

They're Fantastic!

I've ordered from them over a dozen times with the majority of those orders being shipped to Canada. Includes strings, capos, and picks. Most times (perhaps always) there's a handwritten "thank-you" note on the invoice.

I've had great experience getting strings from them, but never bought anything beyond.

I haven't used Strings and Beyond.

I use Just Strings.

The Just Strings Website seems easier to navigate and the prices seem competitive.

Just Strings is out of New Hampshire.

Add me to the S&B Fan Club. They've won me over with their responsiveness, great customer service, and competitive prices. I tend to place large orders with them, during some of the busiest times of the year, and they always come through. When they stocked out of an item and missed their 24 hour shipment guarantee, they ended up shipping to me via 2-day express to make up for it (not necessary, but completely appreciated). They're my first and only stop for guitar strings.

BIG thumb's UP!!!

I've used them a lot over the past 7 years or so... always get great service, fast shipping and they even remember custom sets I ordered over a year prior!

Good people... get on their email list and you'll get frequent notifications of specials and overall percentage discounts...

I’m is Australia and use them for strings because they are still only about half the price of buying locally. They always ship promptly. I recommend them strongly.

I buy my bulk strings from them. Never an issue with anything I've purchased from them.
