Thomastik 135 4/4 Violin Set

Love these strings. They are worth more than my violin is, but they sound lovely when I play well and are so easy to get in tune. Wonderful strings.

As a professional violinist and teacher, I find these strings are affordable and I recommend them to my students and and notice a massive improvement in the sound on cheaper instruments. I notice thee are a number of amateur players on here posting reviews, so I feel it is worth pointing out that as with all strings, they will need a settling in period as they stretch out, so be sure to allow a couple of weeks before an exam for this to happen and for them to reach maximum resonance, as there is often a period of a tinny sound as they stretch. I recently purchased a very cheap instrument and these strings have made a world of difference to the sound. This is the best price I could find at the time for this product.

I needed to replace all four strings on my fiddle, the old ones were really past their best - not helped by my appalling playing but that's another matter entirely. These strings were easy to fit and tune, and have kept their tuning 24 hours later, which is great. The tone is soft and rounded, they feel nice on my fingers, they're not sharp and making me feel like I have permanent indentations after playing just one tune. I'm happy with them and would totally recommend for a hobby/pleasure player like me.

Dominant are good quality "neutral" strings that let the violin shine through with its natural sound on the whole spectrum, without adding brightness or darkness of their own. Every time I tried different strings I always ended up going back to them. The 4 stars are because the E string is not great, most people replace it with a better e, I personally use a Zyex e but different Es work on different violins.

I'm not a great violin player, my violin is a Stentor Verona. When I bought the violin it was strung with Pirastro Tonica, which are great strings, providing a great crisp and bright sound, for my needs (Irish Fiddle). However, I decided to re-string with Dominants and Wow my violin was transformed, what a great strong, still bright yet deeper tone. I realise that you must consider strings, bows, rosin, etc, etc, for your particular violin and needs but, I would highly recommend Dominants to bring on the sound quality of a low priced violin.

Having grown weary of my shoes frequently becoming un-tied whilst walking about town, I went on Amazon in search of laces made of some sterner stuff. These were perfect, once you tie a double bow in this fine but strong wire there is no way it is coming undone. I particularly like the range of gauges that were included in the set; I use the thicker ones for my hiking boots, and my daughter loves the thinner (gauge "E" i believe) one for her ballet flats. I was surprised that you only get one of each lace in the set, but then I realised that since they are so long you can just cut them in half to lace a pair of shoes.

Replaced some Pirastro Tonica, the E sounds much much better. Overall, the sound feels fuller and richer, though that could be a result of improved playing experience

Insane difference in my student violin (Stentor Student 2) over the factory strings. After letting the strings settle in for a day and tuning them to pitch, it sounds like a completely different violin. I also found that the strings are far more precise in their pitch gradients, which is useful if you're learning as it prevents you from being careless. I'd describe the sound of these strings as "pure". It's clean, and balanced, it doesn't sound particularly warm, maybe more on the brighter side, but overall very neutral.

This product is super good. It came in three days even though it said it would take seven days. These strings sound beautiful and have a nice rich tone. Definitely worth it!

Incredible value for strings - they have really strong tone quality and make it easy to control the sound. Very easy to install, takes about a week of tuning to get strings completely settled.

Man får mycket sträng för pengarna. Bästa pris på Tomastiksträngar jag kunnat hitta på nätet.
