So...being the enthusiast who wants what he wants... I embarked upon the simple task of ordering strings from the US of A to the extreme outer limits ( so it seems) of Scotland. Now as you all know...all that stands between Scotland and USA is... water. The Pond, The Atlantic. Its a straight line. Just one plane ride direct to Glasgow!! Not so for a batch of strings....see here (so far)

Hey Hunners, I sincerely hope the postage is not by the mile, if so they could be the most expensive strings on the planet
