Good C string for a 5-string violin
2 out of 2 found the following review helpful

Pros: It's actually a violin C string, for a 5-string violin, with a standard violin scale length. It has a very round tone, and is very responsive too. Most other C strings are actually short-length viola strings, and they tend to be a bit "rubber-band"-y, with poor tone.

Cons: Can't think of anything bad about this string.

Other: If you're a 5-string player, check out this C string.

Excellent choice for viola conversion!
1 out of 1 found the following review helpful

Pros: Hi Was looking for a C string to convert my 2nd violin into a viola. Had read stuff online about how using a viola C string would give unsatisfactory results - like using an "elastic band". So it was good to find a C string specifically for a violin. Very happy with this string - which is fairly pricey, but cheaper than buying a viola! Lovely deep tone, maybe not quite as good as a real viola but perfectly good sound for a beginner like me, and it's going down well with the violins and cello in my quartet. Highly recommended! Mark

Cons: A little pricey for my budget.
