Members james on bass Posted September 18, 2008 Members Share Posted September 18, 2008 I remember when I first joined up here there was a sticky for a place to donate used strings to underprivledged musicians in third world countries. The link is long since dead. I've got 6 or 7 used sets of strings lying around that I hate to throw out since they could be of use to someone somewhere. Does anyone know of such a charity or cause?

I can't remember what the web address was. I'll give you 2 points for general knowledge, but you can't get a 10/10 until you come up with a link.
