Guitar Strings
Have you been tossing your used strings into the recycle bin all these years? Yeah, me too. I was super bummed to discover that guitar strings have never been recyclable – until now.
Here's What To Do
- Create and activate an account with D'Addario's string recycling program.
- Get a small shipping box for your old/used strings (6" x 8" works great).
- Toss your old strings into that box and keep it up till the box weighs 2lbs.
- Go back to your account and print off a free Player's Circle shipping label.
- Send off your old/used strings for recycling!
Amplifier Valves
Preamp and power amp valves (aka "tubes") pose a bit of a problem. Nothing sounds better than a proper valve amp, but all valves eventually wear out and there's never been a way to recycle them. A company called Terracycle is trying to change that.
