3.0 out of 5 stars Tone Vs. Playability and Price..., March 12, 2006
Unless the strings are for a very young player and ease of playing is an issue, I would not recommend them. Red Labels are not capable of producing the tone or timbre that is typically associated with the violin, instead it produces a relatively bright sound reminiscent of acoustic flat top guitar. Though the brightness diminishes with time, a string with broader tonal qualities would be more fun: If you can afford it, try one tier up from these strings, something that's truly "flat-wound". Keep in mind that Red Label strings might actually be quite appropriate for very young players who would benefit from a string that facilitates easy and consistent production of sound from the instrument; violin is a difficult instrument for adults, much more so for kids! I would add that the price is relatively low and therefore appropriate for early ages, where commitment has not yet been established or where budget is a factor. Have fun!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for beginners, November 23, 2004
By LuvsViola (Indianapolis, IN) - See all my reviews
These strings are ok for beginners to use. They are cheap and durable, but that is about the only thing they have going for them. Students beyond the first or second year should look for better brands, like Dominant or Helicore. If you are serious enough to be buying strings here, you should talk to your teacher about a better brand.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good strings for the beginning student, November 3, 2007
I really like these strings because they seem to be fairly well made and they're cheap. The original E string I got with my violin broke pretty quickly after I got it, but this new one has lasted through much more abuse and shows no sign of breaking anytime soon. I think the sound produced is better as well, though I have no clue how it stacks up to more expensive strings. I don't really have anything bad to say about these strings, but I gave them four stars simply because I have an electric violin and can't speak to their tone in an acoustic.

These are the strings my daughter prefers for her fiddle over all other brands of strings. They are also very reasonably priced.
