Great string, felt like an upgrade
Pros: Compared to Jargar classic medium tension, very similar. Not as much difference than the A, where the Larsen is definitely more mellow. Here the sound is perhaps a little more mellow, but overall very similar.
Cons: None

Great string if it suits your cello
Pros: As for the Larsen G I've just reviewed: I've used Larsens on both my 1850 German cello and my Luis and Clark carbon fibre instrument and liked them. The c/f instrument prefers a Larsen Soft A and a Pirastro Permanent C. The German cello is fine with Larsens or Pirastro. Of course, every instrument responds differently, and my review is based only on what I've been able to afford to try! A certain dealer in Cardiff, where I bought my c/f cello and had my German restored, can let you try strings before buying, within reason. Very helpful.
Cons: No cons
Other: Swift and efficient service from String Zone

More pleasure by using Larsen
Pros: Purchased for my daughter who had purchased a basic cello some years ago but on advice fitted Larsen strings. Having loaned the cello to a friend while she went travelling it was returned in not very good condition (sadly) with a mix of string manufacturers. A specialist repairer said that being a inexpensive instrument he didn't feel it worth fitting expensive strings but my daughter decided to make up a full set again using Larsen anyway. Good decision. She says that even on a basic instrument the tonal quality, over the strings fitted by her friend, is very noticeably improved, which encourages her to play .
Cons: None that I'm aware of.
Other: If Larsen strings help to make playing more pleasurable they are worth every the price.
