    D'Addario Helicore 4/4 Size Violin Strings 4/4 Size Set with Steel E String

    • I had read some good reviews online.
    • Maybe my set was faulty since the other reviews are good but buy with caution
    • Based on the good reviews, I thought these strings would be a good quality for the price.
    • She acquired a 100+ year old German fiddle last year and had heard good reviews on Helicores and wanted to try 'em.
    • However, I have consistently found the high e to be excessively tense.
    • Just got them in today and while tuning the violin the stupid e string broke.
    • I have since gone back to the set with the solid steel E string.
    • It has a nice round tone all the time, even compared to the Olive Gold E that I chose to play because I hate an E that shrieks
    • Many people have trouble with E strings--this E string sounds very nice.
    • So, I typically add H311W to the order just to have an extra E string available
    • Note that there are two sets of Helicore mediums, and this particular set has a wrapped E string (as opposed to a solid steel E string).
    • The E is very weak and I recommend buying a separate E if you're going to buy these
