Cobalt delay?

[MaxDestroyer]

I cant find anymore regular slinky cobalts anywhere and everyone says it will be 6+ weeks before they get more.

Whats going on? Does it take a long time to make them or something?

Thanks,

Max

I can't speak for EB, but my guess is high demand.

Ok 6 weeks is not a good number...we are working as fast as we can and will not sacrifice quality...there are several more steps involved in the making of these.

The wonderful part is that they have been a home run....Even the most jaded and skeptical are singing the praises...WE scour internet sites and places where they hate us love the cobalt....

We are trying as hard as we can....

Thanks BP. I was wondering because of the different alloy EB uses if it takes them longer to make. The strings are fantastic and are now my main string. I did have an issue with 1 set I got. The wrap near the top on the string was pulled away from the core a bit. It was on the part of the string I cut anyway so it wasent a big deal. I just thought it was odd as I have never seen this before on any EB string I have ever used and ive been using EB's for 15+ years now.

Do you know if EB is going to sell them in boxes cause all the places I have checked with are saying they are not getting them on boxes.

Thanks again for the reply and I cant wait to get my hands on more !! LOVE these strings!!!!

Being in the manufacturing business I can say that sacrificing quality would be a mistake. It's better to take the time to get the quality you need than to make a sub-standard product.

That's why we trust your products, BP.

That didn't even cross my mind. I'm mostly here for the amusement.
