Super Sensitive Red Label strings are one the most popular in America. Economically priced, the strings are made with high quality winding and core materials providing the durability and dependability required by the school orchestra programs. These durable strings provide good tonal quality and dependability. Red Label strings are especially favored by Suzuki Method instructors, school and private teachers and students, and many professional musicians. Red Label strings are available in many different sizes allowing younger students to use right size strings on their instruments rather than fitting larger sized strings. Made in USA.

With quarantine, my daughter had to miss class due, to string for her violia. Even though i had to wait a month. Understandable I live in NY, I would be scared to send anything my way . LOL. Received and is holding up, she has class 3 days a week and it's been well over a month. So yes will definitely purchase again, have no choice to wait, no stores around.

I was on a budget so I was looking around for what seemed to be quality budget strings, so I bought these, but I was mistaken in their sound. They have a very medium but scratchy sound it's not bad, but you need a lot of rosin to make them sound good, and that amount of rosin is bad for the strings so it's a "lose, lose" in that regard. But they do work for what I'm using them for, practice. If you want proper strings for a viola with a warmer tone, and more direct sound, I would recommend something else.I would look at the Sharmusic Viola strings chart, it's what I used to find the ones I ordered.

I bought this to see if it would work to string my old fiddle as a viola. I play by ear, and I wanted some pitches below G anyway. (I don't hear upper pitches perfectly in tune, so the E string is problematic for me.) So, I kept my violin A, D and G strings, moved each one up a peg and added this C string. Works beautifully!

The strings came fast per usual with Prime and they play exceptionally well for intro strings. They take a good three or four days to stretch to adequate tuning length but hey, they are awesome.

I was repairing a Viola and needed an A, to keep the costs down for the student I purchases this single string. The A string. Put it on, it held nicely, and kept its tune. Plus, the bowing was even and the string didn't stand out but sang well with the rest of the strings which were not replaced.
