Good , but could be better
1 out of 2 found the following review helpful

Pros: None

Cons: None

Other: My experience is that these strings neither feel nor sound as good as their rival: Dominant. Maybe it's the violin and maybe it's my ear, but I'm definitely going back to Dominant.

A good string at a good price
2 out of 5 found the following review helpful

Pros: I like these strings, they settle in quickly and have a powerful tone. They're a touch less sweet toned than Dominants and are also thinner under the fingers

Cons: It is a gut reaction (pardon the pun) but I don't think they will last as long as a set of Dominants, but I could be proved wrong
