Godin Glissentar strings in EU?
Hi there!
Have you any idea of an e-music store selling the original Godin or the Thomastik KR116 string sets in EU (or Greece in particular)?
John.

I read in a guitar forum, that people recommended to buy 2 packs of Thomastik-Infeld Classic S instead, which don't produce this horrible
screetching noise, when the fingers slide over the strings. And they last very long.

1) oudtab, I'm aware of Godin strings @ stringsandbeyond.com, but the store is in the US, and the shipping cost in EU is too high compared to a local
EU store (e.g. like Thomann). That's why I posted the question at first place...
2) Aymara, you're right, a lot of people support your claim about Thomastik-Infeld Classic S strings (even into this forum), but unfortunately, I
cannot find these too in a EU store.
In summary, my "googling" for a EU store which sells the original Godin or the Thomastik-Infeld strings has failed until now. I'll keep
searching...
Thanks for your responses,
John.

Sorry, I forgot to mention, that you can order the Thomastik strings at Thomann in Germany ... a reputable dealer ... never had a problem with them.
The Glissentar strings can be ordered from Musik Produktiv also in Germany.
Happy shopping  ... both websites can be set to English.
