Quality


These are very sturdy strings and worked perfectly on my nerdy gurdy build.


Good quality strings, i don't know if they made my brother sound any better, but the cello sounds better!


I broke a string last week and orders these to replace all the strings.


The person selling it had put a cheap set of strings on it and it did not sound very good.

Price


I especially liked the price for these since the cello itself is only a couple hundred.


I wish they were a bit cheaper, but when i have a performance to do, i will definitely have these strings on my cello.


A little pricey, but worth the investment.


I picked up a set for around $50 without any great expectations.

Packaging/appearance


Contrary to a previous review, the string came in its original packaging, definitely a new string.


From the moment i opened the package, i could tell they were high quality strings.

Competitiveness


I bought a different cheaper brand first but these strings sound so much better and much easier to play!


I didn't want to spend a lot of money, so i found what most school orchestras use--this brand.


There may be better strings out there that cost more, but i am thinking now that buying anything less than these is false value.


I recently bought a low cost practice cello that include some un-named generic brand strings.

    I currently have some helicore strings on the 44 and those do sound slightly better

    I was always a strong advocate of daddario helicore string sets for all my fractional student cellos but gave these a try for a 18th cello i own
