 good stand by's February 14, 2008

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.
 Horrid under the fingers and worse for the ear December 9, 2007

Of course each instrument has its own requirements but I have tried these strings on 3 fine instruments for professional use. They are thin and tend to vibrate in a way that feels somewhat unnatural under the fingers. In addition, the sound is brash, single-dimensional, and without many subtle qualities. It's true that they are remarkably stable but I consider this secondary to performance and sound.

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 strings for folk music January 25, 2007

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.
