Every guitar player knows how important new strings are, but sometimes going to the local guitar shop is an inconvenience. Our local shop is open on the days my husbands work so I was looking for a way for my husband to get the strings he needs in a convenient way. I Finally came across a subscription box for guitar players!
Gear Supply Co is a company FOR guitarists BY guitarists! They understand the importance of high quality guitar goods that are well crafted and designed.
Their electric strings are hand wound with a premium nickel alloy blend, for optimized sustain, chime and warmth, their acoustic strings are hand wound with a premium phosphor bronze blend, and optimized for clarity, warmth, and a bit of punch. Guitar Supply Co also offers bass strings which are hand wound with a premium nickel alloy, they’re designed for maximum clarity and smooth rich harmonic overtone. Their guitar picks are made from the highest quality, super durable, matte delrin. Their strings are wound by hand which means a trained technician uses a hand cranked winding machine and oversees each string’s assembly, not an automated machine where a button is pressed and left alone. This takes a bit longer, but results in a superior sound and feel, and it means each string is inspected for imperfections and inconsistencies by the tech as it’s being wound. That equals stronger consistency and reliability from set to set for you.
Their subscriptions are super easy! You select the strings and picks you want and they will deliver them directly to your door step! Plans include Acoustic only, Electric only and Electric & Acoustic.
Acoustic only plans include:
1 ACOUSTIC SET + 3 PICKS for $10 a month
2 ACOUSTIC SETS + 6 PICKS for $18 a month
2 ACOUSTIC SETS + 6 PICKS for $32 a month
