Who Sells Ernie Ball RPS Single Strings?

[TSJMajesty]

I want Ernie Ball, Reinforced Plain Strings to match what I use, .010. I'd like to buy from an actual guitar store, not Amazon, but it's looking like that's where I'll end up.

Already tried Strings & Beyond and Just Strings.

.10s are what sell the whole rest of the pack …

These just showed up… It’s one of those. “ask me how I know“ things…

EDIT to add: the customer service is top notch; being highly proactive, and letting me know about a split order, and then the way the whole order was handled.

I’m gonna try nine’s for the first time in a long time with a little extra bottom

I’ve picked up individual Ernie Ball strings from GC, these were slinky’s…

I'm learning there's 2 types of 10-46 Slinkys in the yellow pack- regular 'plain' (#2221), and RPS, which are the ones that come standard on the Majesty and what I use (#2240)

When you look up a single 10 on EBMM's site, the red and white pack is the 'plain' set, #1010, but they also have the RPS as singles, in a blue & white pack, #1030. I could find those 'plain' singles pretty much anywhere, but nobody seemed to carry the other ones. And those are the same strings as in the 2240 set.

Long story short, I was trying to find single 10's to match the set of strings I use, but I ended up buying the regular plain. (Sorry for the huge pics!)

You can buy single strings directly from Ernie Ball, with a minimum order of 6.

I put together a custom set of strings, and buy 6 of each for the gauge needed for each string, Low E through High E.

It came out to be something like $38.

Regular sets in my area sell for about $8 each, so it would cost $48 to buy 6 sets at my local music store.

I ended up saving money just buying directly from Ernie Ball.

You can buy single strings directly from Ernie Ball,

I can't see how. On the Single Strings page, all it shows is "Locate Store", and on the "Shop" page, there's no option to purchase strings.

In fact, the "Accessories" link on the 'Shop' page is broken. But strings are shown in the "Merch" pic, but when I follow that link, all it takes you to is merch stuff.

How long ago did you buy directly from EB?

I emailed them about buying single strings, they called me, then put my order through
