Hello Music Adds “Dollar String Club” Subscriptions, 30 Hypebot Readers Get 3 Months Free

Since music subscription services for listeners are all the rage nowadays, why not take the same approach for musicians, too? At least that’s the thinking behind music marketplace/social commerce platform Hello Music’s latest initiative to provide guitar players with month-to-month subscriptions of fresh electric guitar strings. Dubbed the “Dollar String Club,” Hello Music promises to deliver electric guitar strings directly to any guitarist’s location for as little as $1 per month. 

Anyone who is a guitarist, or has ever been in a band with a guitarist, understands that string mishaps can occur at any time (often at the worst times), and that strings should be replaced regularly to maintain optimum tone. Recognizing the need for guitarists to always have fresh strings on hand, Hello Music’s “Dollar String Club” seeks to simplify the process. Members simply pick their preferred string type from three options, set their shipping address, and automatically receive their desired strings each month.

“With our new monthly subscription service, everyone from weekend warriors to touring professionals can now get amazing strings at a very reasonable price, automatically reordered and delivered monthly," said Rick Camino, CEO of Hello Music.

The company is offering three pricing and quality tiers:

• Select: $1/month for a set of vintage-style, nickel-plated steel strings for a warm, full-sounding tone
• Premiere: $7/month (shipping inclusive) for a set of cryogenically frozen strings for twice as much lifespan, durability and tone
• Platinum: $9/month (shipping inclusive) for strings with increased mass, tighter windings, smoother feel, extra-long life and a more resonant tone unrivaled by conventional string design

Hello Music promises that more services like Guitar String Club are in the works, as well.
