Thomastik Dominant 4/4 Violin A String Medium Aluminum-Perlon

When I started learning to play the violin 65 years ago, these didn't exist. Violin strings were either sweet and mellow sheep gut, or harsh-sounding steel. The sheep gut strings were magnificent, but short-lived, and wouldn't stay in tune with variations in temperature and humidity. Then, some years ago a God-inspired genius developed the "Perlon" string, and there are no finer ones than Thomastik Dominant. They have a nylon core, they have a lovely sweet tone similar to the old gut strings, they stay in tune once broken in, and they are long-lasting. If you can afford them, buy these for your violin. You will NOT regret it.

My daughter is learning the play the violin and I got these for her to use with her new violin. They work great and came recommended from her orchestra teacher.

Bought for Grandson and he loves them.

I like the tone quality and the depth and warmth of the string. They also last quite a while without going false and needing to be changed. Use them on my violin G, D, and A strings.

Sound good I do want t try Evah's next but if they aren't anything better then these are a solid reliable source. E string sounds great A is nice too D is alright G perhaps can be sharper in sound but it's cool. I do like these Dom's and good deal here with fast shipping. Cheers

Solid Choice for dependable sound quality and tone. It's been my choice of strings for years. I'm sure there are new options, but unless someone can make a compelling argument for a different set, I'll stick to these.

Replaced my A string for the first time since my high school orchestra days(11 years ago) after it broke, and didn’t know what I was missing out on. This string just sounds brighter and nicer.

I love these strings but am returning and trying again and hopefully they will send to me in a box with bubble wrap. Strings are very easily bent in an envelope so I highly recommend sending individual strings in a tube or box.
