D'Addario Prelude Cello G String 4/4 Scale, Medium Tension

Solid strings, no negatives, good sound and sustain.

Brand new cellist playing a rental "student" cellist, so I can't comment on the quality or the sound this brand of strings produces. I broke a string - basically I didn't know how to tune my A string. It came quickly and I was able to replace it after watching a couple YT video.

Well, cello strings are not cheap. But I tried saving money and bought some cheap ones online and two of them broke in less than a month. I have tried these Preludes now on a 4/4 and a 3/4 cello and two electric cellos. For the money they are hard to beat. There may be better strings out there that cost more, but I am thinking now that buying anything less than these is false value. I am a beginner cellist but am currently really liking these for the price. I currently have some helicore strings on the 4/4 and those do sound slightly better. If you are on a budget and just beginning cello I don't see how you could go wrong with these.

Exactly what I needed for my half cello. With prime, I received it within two days, which meant no down time for my student. Nice to be able to buy only the string I needed - or a complete set. Win, win!

The "A" string broke on the rental student cello. Originally bought a set of 'cheap' strings (all 4 strings included in the set). While my son could play the "A" string, it tends to squeak. After a few tries, we gave up and returned that set, bought this single string (close to the price of the 4 strings)...and yes, there are even more expensive ones. But for student use, this seemed sufficient. Wow, no more squeaks, easy to play, and sounds better than the other 3 strings that were on this rental cello. So, yes, as other reviewers have noted, even if you were to buy a cheap cello, get a set of these strings and they will sound so much better.

Noticed a difference in quality in a good way with this product, after having to replace an old string. Granted I'm just starting to get back into playing after 10+ years but I could still tell the better sound.

The package says Cello 4/4 but the length is for a Viola or Violin definitely not a Cello. It doesn’t even reach to the first peg. I double checked the package to make sure the wrong one wasn’t sent and it definitely said Cello 4/4, the wire needs to be 43” and it’s not. It was sealed with a sticker so I don’t know why it would not be correct. I’m disappointed because I have to spend more time waiting for a different wire and spend time to go to the store to send this one back.

Well i thought this was a set of strings kind of deceptive listing its not even the string i needed so im not super pleased not sure why these were listed individually i never seen guitar or violin strings sold separately so IM giving a maximum of 3 stars im leaning more towards 2 stars but 3 it will be

Excelente

全てこの弦に変えるのであれば良いが、ヤーガーなどと混ぜて使うとヤバい

Buenas

Die Saiten sind als Notsaiten ideal. So weit so gut. Das Problem ist, dass ich die Saiten bestellt habe. Dann hiess es NACH der Bestellung, es sie nicht lieferbar. Ich solle die Bestellung stornieren und NEU bestellen. Neu bestellt waren sie lieferbar aber deutlich teurer!!! Ich frage mich, ob Amazon so absichtlich viel zu teure Preise verlangt, da es nun schon wieder bei einer neuen Bestellung passiert ist. :-( Preis- und Lieferfrist sollte von Amazon eingehalten werden. Da dies nicht der Fall ist, ist der eine Stern schon zu grosszügig.

Muy buen precio y calidad. Sin duda, repetiré cuando lo necesite.
