Dominant Strings

These strings have a highly flexible, multi-strand nylon core. The resounding success of Dominant strings is due to its similarity in tone and response to gut strings, without gut's attendant drawbacks. The sound is full and mellow, yet rich in overtones. Its ability to project sound without being metallic comes to the fore both in arco and pizzicato. Also offers effortless response to intricate fingering and tuning stability even under extreme humidity and temperature conditions. Dominant strings should be changed at appropriate intervals to ensure continuity of tone color.

Not good…

These strings were not good for my viola. I have a 16 inch Matthias Albani from 1691 and these strings were horrible... Like cheap strings, when you increase the bow speed the strings go up in pitch. They also could not withstand much weight from the bowing arm (poor performance playing any kind of Strauss and sometimes Beethoven) nor were responsive to light, fast strokes (Mendelssohn Scherzo). I found the sound quality brittle and fuzzy. I bought these strings for decreased string tension and ease of playing in the left hand; more as an experiment really. I won’t be buying these strings again in the future. I do not recommend. Don’t waste your money.

These strings have nearly doubled in price but not in quality over the last few years. Work better on violin.
