A fully stocked wall of the best quality Guitar Strings

Buying Strings at The Music Spot will never be the same again...

We have been rapidly expanding and upgrading our stock, and our String Wall is one of the first places to benefit. 

We are proud to announce we now stock a huge range of Ernie Ball and D'addario Guitar and Bass Strings, including multi-packs and expanded gauges.

Ernie Ball, the world’s leading manufacturer of strings and accessories, has been making high-quality electric guitar and bass strings since 1962. World-class players like Paul McCartney, Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, Slash, Jimmy Page, and Buddy Guy have all played Ernie Ball strings to create their unique sound. They use the latest technologies and finest materials to continuously enhance your playing experience and provide an unparalleled palette of expressive options.

The D'Addario and Co. family business can trace its origins all the way back to Italy in the 1860s, they were shepherds and string makers for instruments including lutes, harps, guitars and violins. String manufacturing has come a long way since then and D’addario offer many different materials and types to choose from.

Have a look at our website, or better yet, come into the shop and have a chat to one of our Instrument Experts today, to find the strings that will take you and your music to new heights.
