J910-SM Prelude Viola : Surprisingly good

9 years ago

At a little over ¤30, I wasn't expecting much, but I'm pleasantly surprised.

The low C string is heavier than I'd expected, giving a much richer tone than I thought likely from a small instrument (These are for a 3/4 size viola and I'm using them on a violin body). The top A string sounds a little 'thin' by comparison, but overall these strings are pleasant to play and very good value. They could also be useful for owners of 5 string violins (an E string would need to be purchased separately).
