mcgraham Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Right, really would like a spare set for an upcoming gig and CANNOT for the life of me find a shop that sells a separate high-C string. I cannot remember the name of the company I ordered one from before, and I am failing miserably in my quest to find an online retailer that sells separate high-C strings. I'm actually getting quite exasperated by how difficult this is. Does anyone know a company that sells them singly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 [url=http://www.stringbusters.com]Stringbusters[/url] were able to sell me a single TI Jazz flat. I had to phone them up though, rather than just order on-line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgraham Posted March 22, 2013 Author Share Posted March 22, 2013 Ta! I think I'll be calling round a few places today - no real choice at this stage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ead Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 If only it was the other side of the fretboard. I've a B string that is not going to be used... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgraham Posted March 22, 2013 Author Share Posted March 22, 2013 At some point I will restring my other fretted bass B-G, but I need to get a new nut/nut recut to do that. I've not broken a string in 6/7 years, so never really keep spares, and I love how flats sound as they age. Nevertheless, I've got a conference gig that's a week long first week of April, and it'd be silly not to have some spares lying around.

KiOgon Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 If you get a spare High C - you can bet your bottom dollar it won't be the C that breaks or have you already got the others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgraham Posted March 22, 2013 Author Share Posted March 22, 2013 I'm trying to get a whole E-C set, so a standard JF344 set + a single high C, but I'm wanting to order 2 sets - one as a spare for my main bass, and one to restring my other bass.
