Default Do Captain Toms sell strings?

Got jams tomorrow, and I've busted a high E somehow. I was stretching the thing in as I'd only just put it on, and it blew up. Shitfuck!

Do I have to buy a whole pack, or do they sell them individually?



Fuck D'Addario pure nickles. Flimsy fucking cunts.

Last time I was there, you could buy a single string at a time. Cue amazing jokes when I asked for a G string.

They were hardly straight out of the top drawer, so I can't really remember them. I do remember that they were total shit though.

"Rookie" Indeed,
I thought guitar players "ALWAYS", had spare strings in the case?

Although, over the years, I have encountered guitarists who turn up to gigs with "No Strap", ( had to use string),
No picks, (Assuming you use them), &,
a Drummer who had 1 pair of sticks.
