I added these to my violin in attempts to get it to produce a better sound and I can say the quality difference in construction and sound is amazing. I highly recommend these!

For the price, these strings (D'Addario Ascente ') are THE BEST $ VALUE ; however, acoustically speaking, these strings are NOT the best strings nor "A" grade quality. Overall, these are "B" grade strings, but for the $ value (e.g.,

So, I personally have played on 3$ sets (all 4 strings for 3$) of strings before these. These are miles better. Value wise these are great. They take a little while to stretch before they stay in tune (this is expected from synthetic core strings). Compared to a pure steel core string - these are easier to play and are less "scratchy". I'm not going to say all steel strings are as scratchy as the super cheap ones I started on.Now on to my *. These are a value option, they are a good value option. I've heard prelude, dominant, and peter infield all of them are hands down better to my ears. I don't feel that it is fair to compare a 28$ set of strings to a 110$ set of strings especially since sound is so subjective. As a value offering - imo 5 stars.

Since these strings are synthetic, they tend to take a long time to settle and stay in tune. They sound very nice for the good price they give you. They packaging was very nice and the 4/4 strings fit perfectly. They aren't the most durable string out there though, due to the core not being as strong as others.

I've been playing music for decades. Started on viola back in 5th grade. Recently started violin to improve my treble clef sight reading. Purchased to put on a student grade 1970's German violin I picked up at Goodwill. I use D'Addario's on my acoustic guitar and figured I'd give these a shot for the price. They are FAR better than the price point would lead you to believe. They broke in after an hour or two of playing and while I don't exactly buy into D'Addario's marketing department's "expanded tonal palette" claims they are good sounding strings and a bit more colorful and a bit warmer/less harsh than steel strings. They, and a bit of noodling with the bridge position, helped clean up the sound on that violin. They feel great under the fingers and are absolutely rock solid in their stability. That part the people in marketing got 100% right. Have barely had to tune that violin after they first got stable. Are they a set of Evah Pirazzi or even Dominants? No, but they are dang good, especially at $21 with prime shipping. My instructor even remarked on them, asking what they were and saying they are "good strings" after playing on them for a bit. At $21 you really ought to try them as they are a cheap alternative to steel strings and I think a good upgrade for beginners and intermediate students.

Initially the string thickness was a little distracting and difficult to adjust to. However, after finally getting them in the right configuration and tuned properly, I feel these are the best strings I have ever had. For my next string change perhaps I will select higher price and quality but for now these are "it".

I must confess - I am a 4th year student. Bought the Ascente full set in April 2024. This set was just replaced on my violin as the a A string was just starting to unravel. Rather than to wait for it to completely snap, my instructor just replaced them all. She felt they wore out much too soon.

The price of these strings was low and it was not the brand I have used for years. They are new to me so I cannot be more specific than saying that I was really pleased at how good they sound. I put them on an old violin I am doing some restoration on, and thought it sounded terrific. Very pleased. I have not had them on long enough to state how they hold up.

A teli D telinden daha kalın. Fiyatına göre güzel. Genel olarak ne parlak ne koyu bir ses tonu var. A ve E ses olarak çok zengin. Hatta A mükemmel, 2. Gün daha parlak hale geliyor.

ces cordes sont assez ternes je préfère les prélude plus sombres mais plus de personnalité

Me encantaron estas cuerdas, la textura al digitar en el violÃn es muy suave y producen un sonido muy terso y nÃtido. Súper recomendables!!

Wanted to replace the cheapo strings that came with my violin.Much better and generally a warmer tone when playing.The e string is sinificantly less squeeky/whistly.
