£22 for two sets of D'Addario Nickel on Amazon

As above, don't know if its been mentioned before.

Just got a twin pack for 22 quid. Seems good value, gigged them last night and they sounded great.

Some very variable reviews on Amazon ... are these strings actually suitable for 34" scale basses?

It does state long scale on the Amazon site?

I looked and there was a message in red stating ‘Frequently Returned’. I don’t ever order strings from Amazon having done it once before 🤔

[police squad]

if there's  problem with them, I'll send them back

there are lots of good reviews too

worth a punt, especially as the strings on both my Warwicks are too light

[snorkie635]

Cheers for this. Just ordered. 👍

Like I said, I gigged them over the weekend and they sounded good.

Came in properly sealed bags as well so I'd say they're legit.

I've used this offer a few times before. The only issue with the 34" scale is that if you string through the body, then the E string might not be quite long enough for some basses. No problems if you string through the bridge, or if you get the XL set.

Thanks for the heads up.

I think I’ve just ordered the last set in stock

[neepheid]

It's back... same ridiculous ETA as the last time I used this order but they arrived way sooner than that.  Anyway, I'm not in a rush, just handy to have some extra spares at a silly price!

Guessing people buy them, add the players points then return, rinse then repeat.

Not so - last time I took this deal, the points codes worked (and no, I didn't return the strings).

[Woodinblack]

Last time I bought some strings (not amazon, ebay), i put the number in and it said they were already registered.

Well, I'll let yous know how I get on this time around - got a few sets on order, awaiting delivery...
