Which Violin Strings?
The type of strings you get depends on your violin and what kind of sound you are trying to achieve. For example, Pirastro Tonicas are a light string that sounds bright. They would not be good for a violin that already sounds bright. Instead, they would be better for a violin that sounds deep, to brighten up and clarify the sound. Vice versa for Obligato strings, which are heavier and sound deeper. They would be better for violins that sound bright, to darken the sound and give the sound more warmth. You should experiment with different strings brands and types before deciding which is the best for you violin. This link might help you get familiar with the options available. http://www.violinist.
