Needle Recommendation

Post by Zkeener323 »

Who do you all recommend for purchasing steel needles from. I had used Chamberlain for a while but the last batch (it's been almost a year as I buy in bulk) of medium tone I got really was not good quality. Has anyone had good experience as of lately, maybe it was a bad batch? But the needles would wear out before the side was finished (yes, I use one needle per side).
I would prefer to buy from a US based seller. I know Soundgen has a good reputation for needles, but he is UK based.
I previously bought some bulk needles from the Yankee Trader, so I will reach out to him again.

Thank you,
