Pros: Great way to make an electric violin play as a viola. I find the helicores the best option on my plugged in fiddles, a good basic sound for the electronics to work on.
Cons: No real negatives but I prefer a richer sound from a synthetic core on acoustic instruments.

Pros: Quite a clear, bright sound
Cons: I would not use this string on an already bright instrument
Other: Using this string on a very sweet sounding small Pellegrina viola...the bright sound suits this instrument very well
