String Dog Tone Rockets

Posted by Jon in • Guitar Accessories

String Dog Tone Rockets
How is this for a good idea, String Dog Tone Rocket strings come with an extra E and B string in every pack, lets face it how often do you break your A string? Never, how often do you break your top E? Well if you are lazy like me and don’t change strings for ages then it will happen and its annoying having to break open a new pack just for one string! Having said that if you have had the strings on for a long time you really would be better off changing the whole set but its still nice to have spares!

What is even nicer is the price, for a box of 10 pack it only costs $39.99 if you buy direct from the StringDog.net website.

I haven’t tried these strings yet but the site says the strings are Nickel plated wrap over a tempered steel core for a great all purpose string.

“The tone is well balanced… chimey highs, clear but not overbearing midrange, and chunky lows.
And high quality plating means they stay great sounding longer.

The strings have excellent flexibility, so bend away! But no worries… the precision winding and premium materials add up for excellent tuning stability and long life.“

These strings do only come in 10 packs but there is a 60 day free trial, they sound pretty confident that you will buy the 10 pack and at $40 they are worth a try.

I’d rather get 1 extra G, B, and E strings, rather than 3 extra B and E strings… I’ve broken a G at least 3 times, and I can only recall 1 time I broke a B.

Well, I have also broken a D and an A recently so I would buy the whole set grin

But OK, you break an E, B or G easier, indeed.

This is a great idea.  I hate it when I have to go buy a whole other pack of strings when a B or E string breaks, especially when they are already new!

Well I personally usually buy my strings in bulk on the internet to save money so I also change the whole set when I break a string but its a cool idea nevertheless.
