I've been using strings from here lately.....
Lots of variety and very cheap, as low as $2.35 a set ($5.35 for flat
wound) if you order 24 sets, shipping is free. They seem as good as
the D'Addarios that I used before discovering them.
From what I have read on the web there are only three guitar string
factories in the US. Most of the name brand strings you get are made
in one of those so there really isn't much difference between the
common brands...
