good deep tones balanced sound long lasting
2 out of 2 found the following review helpful

Pros: I use this string for a low D tuning for Hurdy Gurdy. It is very deep and cello like. Smooth and not too loud. Balances nice with a wonderstring and a corelli violin d string as the other chanters.

Cons: Nothing really. I suppose I could complain about the price but I wont as the string lasts for ages.

Other: I know an unnusual use but there you go it takes all sorts....
