Luthier strings

I'm not a string maniac, I normally use Augustine Blue strings. I've tried and like Luthier strings when I can lay my hands on. I order Luthier strings from Germany when I have the money. Can anyone tell me if I can get them in France. In general, music shops here have never heard of this make.

The cheapest will probably be to buy from www.stringsbymail.com That's what I do myself.

It depends where you live in France. I know you can find them very easily in Paris, in basically all the guitar shops around the "rue de Rome". This is where I buy mines.

I do not remember the price as I do not change my strings that often...

Can you give me a few shop names in Paris, as I live around Lyon? Quite impossible to find in Lyon, Grenoble and around.

You can try l'Atelier 55 rue de Rome or La Guitarreria rue d'Edimbourg.

I do not know if they can ship strings.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the help. I'll try to pop into these shops next time in Paris. I just received two sets from Germany.
