Mum the donkey –
Bought these strings for the school viola that my son is borrowing. Wow what a difference they’ve made. The improvement is so noticeable even my husband can hear the difference! They were easy to change and seem to be keeping their tuning well. The viola now sounds rich and mellow in my opinion.
