Good stable, reliable strings.

Pros: I get them for my daughter - whose discernment when it comes to string sound is fairly exacting, and who has always been very happy with them. They settle in after a few days of tuning and then remain remarkably stable. And we've never had one break. Can't ask for more.

Cons: no cons

I love these strings.

Pros: These strings were recommended to me by my music teacher, who is a full-time professional player. I'm delighted with the tone, and the stability. Since fitting the strings, I've played in a wide variety of condtions - warm, cool, damp. The tuning of the violin has barely changed.

Cons: None
