Excellent in every way.
Pros: Liked everything. The site was very clear and made all simple and quick. Then when I rang for confirmation about delivery details the young man(sounded young anyway!) was most helpful and took personal responsibility to get them to me in time for my concert . And the strings are great. So you will be my first port of call every time from now on. Thank you
Cons: Nothing to declare.:)
Other: Keep smiling . Cheers

Very good, very expensive strings.
Pros: Good, vibrant, long-lasting strings. Not metallic in sound. Magnacore C & G particularly give added depth.
Cons: The Maganacore's are expensive. Maybe a lot of people buy Larsen because they are used by many professional cellists.

Good quality,stability and tone.
Pros: Immediacy, volume of sound, stability
Cons: C string is taking a while to settle in. Sounds a bit harsh still compared with the old Larsen but is improving.
Other: Arrived on time and safely packaged. Easy to fit to my Kennedy 'cello.

found the following review helpful
Pros: The initial vibrancy and smoothness across all the registers and tone quality of C G and D strings.
Cons: A string was always disappointing on my cello .Lacked power and tone. The set went "OFF" very quickly, so too expensive to justify using them again.Very disappointed at the short lifespan.
Other: The strings were vibrant from the outset and I really liked them, but within a week or two the sound disappeared and I was back to square one. It is a huge amount of money to pay out for such a short string life. They are still ok but nothing like they were.I am going to be trying out some new sets next week. What a shame , they were so nice in the beginning but I just cant afford to replace them every two weeks!
