Default Bulk Buying Strings and Plectrums
Does anyone know sites that bulk sell strings and plectrums?

Mainly looking for bass strings, as they're pretty expensive. Are there deals to be had on buying loads at once..?

I've used them before - well impressed. Only problem I've had is I like using dirty strings and don't go through plectrums at any kind of rate, so I've still got a massive pile of Slinkys and plecs!

I use strings direct. Ultra quick service and the more you order the cheaper it is per pack.

Strings Direct are amazing. I've ordered leads and strings at about 4pm one day and they've arrived the next morning. They're also super helpful if you need advice about a product. Oh, and they're really really cheap.
