This review is from: D'Addario Zyex Violin Single A String, 4/4 Scale, Medium Tension (Electronics)

I play professionally and have been using Obligatto and Evah Pirrazis but wanted to try something less expensive due to good reviews and I am very pleased with these. I read they only play loud and louder but I am able to play expressively as a soloist on these.
