I was pleased with how fast the strings arrived. I tried a gold-plated string for the first time and was impressed with it. I will certainly order strings from Southwest Strings again.

I my new strings. Have had Dominant strings in the past and will always use them. Only have one complaint..the E string broke when as I was restringing my violin and it broke on the cloth covering part that wraps around the peg. So I don’t know if the string was defective as this has never happened before.
