Ernie Ball Pino Palladino flatwounds - £90 a set

[kevin_lindsay]

I've bought a set - better be decent at this price 

 

The most expensive strings I had bought previously were a set of LaBella "Jamerson" 1954 flats at around £50 (which seemed ludicrously expensive)

 

Anyone else ordered a set yet?

Or, any thoughts?

Quite a bargain compared to those Dogal Flatwounds!

 

Even if I won the lottery I'm not sure I could get my head round paying that much for strings.

I guess the good thing is it will be a one time payment as they'll never need replacing. Still, I doubt they are any different to regular Ernie Ball Flats so you are paying for the name.

Pino must be demanding a decent amount of cash for his name…

I would pay £90 for them if they made me play like him.

Cheap at half the price - I accurately doubt I’d manage that if I paid 50 times more for them.

£90? If they last 30 years like a good set of flats should then they're a bargain.
