Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-off Refreshing change
Pros: Clear Full sound, gives my violin a much deeper tone.
Cons: Slight scratching when playing two strings loudly at the same time. (I may need a new bridge though.)
Other: Excellent price...Worth it if you're bored of Dominants, though I have only had these strings for about a month. I prefer them to Dominants which I have been using for five years. It's a refreshing change :)

Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-off Pirastro Tonica fiddle strings at a bargain price!
Pros: I'm more than pleased with the product...the strings are beautifully balanced across the instrument and seem to suit the demands of playing vibrant Irish music. The tonal qualities surpass those of much more expensive strings......AND I particularly like the highly competitive price!! Dónal Maguire
Cons: I cacn't complain!!

Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-on Sound quality excellent.
Pros: These strings improved the sound quality dramatically of my rather cheap, old and battered violin. I would certainly recommend this set to others I and intend to use these strings again next time.
Cons: The full price, (without special offers etc), is rather high for my limited funds, - but you do get what you pay for.
Other: Very good, quick, accurate service from thestringzone.

Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-on great strings at a great price

Cons: Can't think of any.
Other: These are my first strings I have ever bought after the strings that came with my violin started to brake. I will be happy to buy it again in the future :-)
