Excellent strings superior to Dominant

Pros: mellow soft strings

Cons: I have ordered 2 sets of these for different violins & the E string on both occasions snapped near the peg while fine tuning .

Other: If I hadn't had to wait 5 or 6 days for replacement of faulty E strings I would have given 5 out of 5 rating however I have given 4 out of 5
