Ezzee~slide Tone Bar price mixup

Post by basilh »

MY prices are changing on November 1st.. At the moment they are all wrong; upon checking I’ve discovered than my prices are almost 20% TOO LOW.
I calculated them BEFORE Brexit and based them upon the 2010 prices for Tribotone.
NOW, after Brexit because the dollar is so strong against Sterling my prices really favour the Dollar or USA Buyer..~
I’ve priced the 1” Standard 10 string = 3.3125” (84mm) 7.7 ounce (2218g) ($120) £87.75 When in fact £87.75 is ONLY $107.15. Consequently my price for this bar (And the others pro rata) will increase to £98.27..
This discrepancy is constant across all my price structure. So regretfully I will have to increase the price especially as the raw material comes from DuPont USA.

Basil,
Thank you for stepping up and getting this product on the market. I have owned or played almost every bar in the steel universe, and yours is by far the best. I love the grip and the feel of the Ezzee-slide, and the lighter weight really makes a difference in playing faster runs. The tone is spot-on; exactly what I was hoping for.
I’m ready to place my order for a black one next.

Hey, John! Maybe you'll let me try the Ezzee-slide bar on my Stringmaster some weekend?
