Excellent Strings Oct 01, 2007
By Haricharan Maramraj
Recently I have replaced my 4/4 violin strings with these news ones. They produce an excellent quality of sound with minimum bow moment. I am happy that I got these strings after a prolonged research to get good strings. I highly recommend these strings to medium to professional violonists.Another good aspect of these strings is that you don't need any setting time. Hope this helps to aspirants.

good stand by's Feb 14, 2008
By A. taylor
I am a freelance classical violinist and these are the strings I always go back to. It depends on the instrument-- but I find these much warmer and fuller than Dominants. And it is not that much fun to start monkeying around with the gut core because they are so expensive.

Good strings for folk music Jan 25, 2007
By Lynn D. Hebert
I mainly play folk music and fiddle tunes, and I prefer the mellow sound of these strings for folk songs and folk fiddle styles of New England, Canada, and the British Isles. To my ear, Cajun music also sounds fine on them. They hold their tune well and I find them responsive and easy to play on.

Sound is a matter of personal taste, of course, and if you are looking for a brighter string for blue grass or southern styles, try steel.

Great Strings for electric violin Jan 09, 2009
By T. R. Woodburn
Had a hard time finding the right strings for my fender electric violin, heard I should check these out from another website, put strings on and the sound was great with excellent tones and fullness but also kept pitch when I pulled the bow hard against strings. Recommend for anyone w/electrics.

These Are Just OK Dec 17, 2010
By Ethel Escoffier
I play professionally and was desperate for strings. The shop only had Helicores so I tried them. The gauge of the strings is inconsistent for starters. The E is very weak and I recommend buying a separate E if you're going to buy these. They last about 6 weeks if you play a lot. They also don't play well or sound good when playing in humid conditions, even if you change rosins. All in all - I would say spend the money and get something of higher quality. These are ok for beginners but that's about it.
