My normal orchestral work goto-don't use any other
Pros: I have restrung my 19th century instrument with Jargar Classic ever since a full reglue re-align of the soundpost and general service/ clean by Ealing Strings in west London many years ago. I find Jargar Classics are pretty easy to thread into the peg hole and slowly bring up to their correct pitch. Once they are bedded-in, I love the resonant sound that they produce in orchestral tutti groups. This is why I am happy to buy Jargar Classic on-line from The String Zone of Lancing.
Cons: None

A Great E String!
Pros: I love these Jargar E strings, I tried the Forte (red packaging) and haven't looked back since. Great tone and a powerful E string. It really sings in the upper registers. hold it tuning very quickly after being on as well! A Great E string!
Cons: I haven't come across on personally yet.

Appropriate strings for the job needed.
Pros: Very quick delivery and excellent price. I was advised to use Jargar strings many years ago [almost 40] by a leading London violin shop as most appropriate for the music I played and still play [Scots fiddle music and Scottish dance band work]. I have used them ever since.
Cons: Nothing

Good sound, but breaks miles too easily.
Pros: The sound great; there's no shrill squeak
Cons: The break awful easily! Besides the obvious, I'm also not keen on fiddle strings breaking because of the way it puts a sudden strain on the fiddle. I got very little use out of the last E string in particular, it had only a few hours of playing done.
Other: I'd change to a more durable alternative if it could produce the same sound.
