Terms: S 'D.L.' ( SoundPost 'Direct Line') prices below include VAT, but std.1st class postage anywhere in mainland UK plus £2.50, 'signed for' or recorded delivery also available at cost, or courier service available at cost ( enquire), packing free, minimum order £5, no credit card surcharges, prices apply only to purchases from this website- the 'in-shop' prices may vary.
NOTE: Due the recent changes in value between Pound Sterling and the Euro, prices of all items we buy in Euros has had to be increased by 8 %- (the fall in value to date is some 16% since pricing this website, but we will absorb some of this ourselves). The prices below do not including this increase- so for all EU manufactured items, incl. Thomastik, (incl Dominant) Jargar, Larsen, and Warchal and any other EU items not specified, add 8% to prices as shown below. This will be revised as the pound recovers. However, PIRASTRO have also increased their prices, so for Pirastro only, a surcharge of 20% to prices shown below must be added. We reserve the right to alter advertised prices without notice at any time.
