Reliability for electric instruments.
1 out of 1 found the following review helpful

Pros: Great way to make an electric violin play as a viola. I find the helicores the best option on my plugged in fiddles, a good basic sound for the electronics to work on.

Cons: No real negatives but I prefer a richer sound from a synthetic core on acoustic instruments.

Bright violin C string
3 out of 5 found the following review helpful

Pros: Quite a clear, bright sound

Cons: I would not use this string on an already bright instrument

Other: Using this string on a very sweet sounding small Pellegrina viola...the bright sound suits this instrument very well

Delighted I changed to Helicore

Pros: Good time and response to dynamics. This applies to all the Helicore strings I bought to replace the original NS Strings, The change was phenomenal but I stress that I have an NS violin with strings A,D,G and C to replace the 16,5 inch viola that age and infirmity forced me to put aside. As I have no-one to accompany me I have a series of pre-amplifiers and pedal devices through two speakers. This enables classical music as well as other genres. I am truly grateful that I spent the extra money on these strings.

Cons: None
