Dominant Custom Violin String Set with Ball-End Gold Label E - 4/4 size - Medium Gauge
Dominant Strings
Thomastik Dominant, or simply called Dominant strings possess a warm, round sound quality, are extremely durable, and have a fast, easy response; usually right from the moment you put them on your instrument. This has made them one of the most popular strings for almost every violinist and violist, intermediate level to professional. Many teachers recommend them to their students over brighter steel strings because of the warmth and depth of the sound they generate.

Dominant strings with Gold Label E
Great combination of strings. It produces warm and clear sound. I've been using these strings for a long time and it has never disappointed me.
Is my E string here yet?
I bought a set of Dominant strings for my 3/4 violin. It came without the E string. Shar told me that they were having difficulty getting them, and asked if I was willing to back order. I said yes. A few months later I was asked if I was still willing to wait (which I appreciated). I said yes. It’s been several months, and I’m still waiting. Haven’t heard anything more since then. I assume Shar is still having trouble acquiring the 3/4 Dominant E string? Would you please let me know what comparable 3/4 E string I should purchase? Will I have to purchase an entire set to get it? I don’t even remember whether or not I already paid for the string, since it was supposed to come in the set. Thanks for any help you can give.
Great combo set
I recently wrote a review on the Dominant set with the chrome steel E and while I like that E string, it doesn't do my antique violin justice with the Dominants like the Pirastro Gold E. It really does balance out the set to make it warmer and more smooth sounding (gut like). I use a Weich or Soft A and it's perfect!
An Ouststanding String Combination!
These strings are perfect for my violin! The warmth and clarity of the Dominant Strings is combined with the brightness and volume of the Pirastro E String. The perfect Violin string combination brought together in one perfect string package!
