User questions & answers

Question:	Do these work on electric violins
Answer:	Cecilio CVN-200 has bright and clear sound. Mendini MV200 and MV300: same quality but with different finish. Both have mellow and warm sound. Mendini MV400: Ebony fittings, has bright and clear sound Mendini MV500: Ebony fittings, has deep rich and powerful tone
Question:	how many strings come in these packets? is it just one, all or half
Answer:	you have to tune it and rosin up the bow
Question:	Are these ball ends
Answer:	This is because the pegs are not tapered to fit the pegs. They are only drilled straight through. They must be hand fitted for the pegs to stay put after tuning. These instruments take many shortcuts to make them cheaper. That is a big problem as the student will get frustrated (and so will their teacher) and all too often will quit playing because of the cheap method of construction. Do Not Buy Any Super Cheap Instruments!!! Would you expect a super cheap car to be reliable and safe? Of course not!! Why do you think this is different?
Question:	I´m just learning to play. What does medium, heavy, light tension mean? Which should I buy
Answer:	It does not come with extra set of string.

User questions & answers

Question:	The core is steel, but what is the winding material
Answer:	Helicores have a twisted wire core whereas Preludes have a steel core. The wires are steel but very fine so the twisted wire makes the string vibrate like a synthetic core. The E string on the violin, however, like most E strings, is plain steel. If you want a wound E string, the metal in the winding will be specified, e.g. gold, silver or aluminum.
Question:	Do these have a ball at the end or a loop
Answer:	They have ball ends.
Question:	is this all 4 strings
Answer:	Yes full set 4 strings.
Question:	Is the E string wound
Answer:	Yes, it is. Excellent violín strings set!

Question:	Does every string have a ball end
Answer:	All the strings in the this set have ball ends.Thank you
Question:	It is only the E string that has the ball at the end, correct
Answer:	That's a simple question with complicated answers that can vary with the instrument and the artist. It's often a bit of an experiment over time, to find the right match.On my daughter's older German fiddle, these strings are well-balanced and responsive, not to mention reasonably priced. She plays a wide range of musical styles, including baroque, classical, romantic, gypsy, old-time country, bluegrass, pop standards, etc. On her fiddle, the Tonica strings are suitable across the spectrum.

Tonicas middle set fits 1/2 and 3/4 size violins which is what you should get. The 4/4 size would be way to big for your violin. If you have any other questions then please do not hesitate to contact us, Thank you, Alexi Strings Inc.
