A: Because of the angles of the wrap wire that we use when winding these strings, there may be some small gaps between windings. This is perfectly normal for our strings. And as you can tell, there is no difference in tone. The Dunlop VCI Fresh system that we recently added is a vapor barrier that does not allow moisture into the package that can corrode the strings. It's one more step that Dunlop is taking to assure that you play the freshest strings possible.

A: We always prefer that players purchase Dunlop products at your local music store. However, if your store does not stock the item and is not willing to special order the item for you, you can order directly from us. You will find that you can purchase our products at a better price from your local music store, online music retailer, or mail order companies. We do not discount our prices, as we do not want to compete with your local music store.
