I think I remembet seeing a site the had 3 sets for $60, that didn't seem like a bad deal. Anyone know of anything better?

uh...3 sets for 60 is not cheap. i just bought one package and it ran me 15.10 and THAT is on the expensive side.

yeah... around here 6 string sets go for about $13. i bought the 12 string set once (havent restrung it since then... it doesnt get played enough), and i think it was probably about $22

I bought 3 sets of Daddario EXP coated 12 strings for $9.99 each at my local Guitar Center. They were in a box on the floor with a Clearance tag on them. I guess they don't sell too many of those, so they put them on Sale to clear their inventory. Lucky me.

$22 a pack is pretty standard at a guitar center for elixir nanoweb 12-stringers...

ordering online at MF or Music123 may be cheaper *per pack* but pretty equivalent in price *after shipping charges*....unless you order in some bulk...
