Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-on Jargars still a great cello string for all players
Pros: This set went on a superior student Hungarian, semi-hand made cello. This is my son's new cello and the strings on it were dreadful. I've found through experience that Jargarsoften sound very good indeed on more modern instruments and they are built to take the strain of a fully metal string. I played the strings in myself and found them lovely. The feel on the left hand was good and smooth as usual and the bow 'bites' into Jargars nicely, so you can produce a good sound without too much bow pressure. There is a good even sound across the tonal range and this set of strings has been very good.
Cons: Perhaps the A string is just a little too harsh for this particular cello. It's still far better than what was on it before, but I think I'll replace the A string with an old Larsen I've taken off my cello, which will still give power, but a softer more muted sound. By the way, I replaced the Larsen on my own cello with a Jargar Forte A string and the results have been fantastic.
Other: This set of strings is excellent and has brought new life to this cello. I recommend if possible to mix and match your strings to your instrument. I have found a combination of Larsens and Jargars very good indeed, and I run both of my own cellos on this combination.Jargars are still in my opinion, one of the best strings on the market for cellos, and they can be right for your cello, even very expensive and valuable cellos.

Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-on A string snapped as soon as fixed
Pros: Arrived promptly
Cons: a string snapped immediately in spite of being put on by an experienced cello player. We had to purchase another separately. We purchased these strings only because they were recommended by the teacher who subsequently fixed them on.
