That’s right – any guitars booked in for a re-string service at the Maidenhead branch of Sheargolds before the end of September will get the strings for free.
Why? We’re trying to promote the importance of regularly re-stringing your guitar(s) and while we’re technically out of recession, times are still a little hard so we’d like to help out.
Re-stringing your guitar keeps the sound as good as it can be, and ensures that the quality of your instrument – and playing! – is not compromised. Over time, guitar strings naturally stretch, gather rust and tarnish, so it’s worth changing them every 1-2 months if you play regularly, or every 3-4 months if you play occasionally.
It only costs £10 to have your guitar re-strung at Sheargolds, but if you want to try it yourself, order a discounted set of strings from our website and check out the handy video guide on each product page here.
If you have any tips, questions, or general thoughts about re-stringing and guitar maintenance, leave us a comment below! Please use the links to pass this blog on to anyone who might be interested in this exciting deal.
So it’s official. With Glastonbury, Latitude and Sonisphere just gone and Reading & Leeds, V Festival and Bestival on the way, festival season is in full swing. I went over to Global Gathering last weekend to check out their weekend rave, and I’m heading to Hevy Festival in Kent this coming weekend for the opposite, two days of hardcore, punk rock, and metal.
