Lindsey Stirling
"D'Addario strings are durable, they stay in tune really well and they allow my violin to really sing."
Mia Asano
“I love my D’Addario Helicore strings! They were the strings recommended to me by almost every electric violinist when I first started playing and I fell in love immediately. I’ve never looked back and have loved how my Helicore strings make me sound even more like myself every time I play.”
Alexander Markov
“The strings are simply phenomenal since they provide a perfect combination between a powerful sound projection required for the large concert halls of today playing violin concertos and yet warmth and sensitivity you can use for the recordings, chamber music and intimate settings.”
