The D'Addario Prelude violin strings have a solid steel string core with alu/nickel wrapping. Temperature and humidity fluctuations have almost no effect on this string, the string also responds very well to various sticks (wood and carbon). This affordable violin string has an excellent price-quality ratio and (for a completely steel string) has a very warm sound. The Prelude violin string is very popular with beginning violinists, because the string lasts very long and the tone is very stable.
