    String Labels

    hello all. i'm a new member to this site and look fwd to spending some time here.

    and now i have a request:

    well, this will no doubt sound pretty wonky to some , buuuuut...

    i've been wallpapering my music room with string labels...the colorful "cover letter" that you find within the clear plastic pouch that is wrapped around the individual string envelopes.

    whew, i hope that makes some sense!

    anyway...though i've been saving these labels for a very long time, i'm gonna come up way short.....so i'm making a desperate plea for assistance!

    if you'd be so kind as to save and send me your un-needed labels i'd be greatly, greatly appreciative.

    i have no need for the plastic envelope, or the individual paper envelopes...just the actual colorful string label that advertises the brand and particular set.

    and it doesn't necessarily have to be gtr string labels...mando, bass, banjo, uke, dulcimer, etc....ALL GOOD!

    anyone actually able and willing to help me out....perhaps you can PM me for my mailing address.

    thanks so much in advance.....btw, i'd be happy to reimburse shipping costs.

    Re: String Labels

    Hi and welcome to the forum!

    That sounds like a fun project to do for your own room, and if I had saved any of my string labels I would send them to you. Are you using D'Addario-style packaging too, or just the sheets that come in Ernie Ball packs?

      hello metalman.

      thanks for the welcome and reply.

      i am using both the thinner paper (cover label) that you find inside the plastic envelope AND the cardboard box style containers as well.

                  hi! Welcome to the board! Ill see if I can find some. I had a bunch and sent them in for a T shirt, but come to think of it, never got the $%#$@!%#! thing... But been saving more since.. But I just moved, so will have to try and find em..
                  Believe me when I say that some of the most amazing music in history was made on equipment that's not as good as what you own right now.

                        I have quite a few you are more than welcome to have, but about half of them have writting on them cause I would write the date I changed strings on the label to keep track how long I had them on my guitar. Can you use the ones with writting or do you just want me to send you the ones without?
