A new alternative for String Players
Strings these days can be expensive which makes it difficult to keep instruments in mint condition, especially if you're a student or a stereotype starving musician. Many of us don't replace our strings often enough simply because new strings are costly. However, a cheaper alternative has been discovered that doesn't compromise on sound.
We call them Maestro Strings. The sound quality is quite comparable to well known brands from the US, Germany, Austria and Denmark.
To give you an idea of the quality of the strings we conducted a comparison between Maestro Strings and well-known European brands. Playing on a Jay Haide violin we tested both sets of strings for dynamic range, optimal left hand feeling and response, projection, and both warm and brilliant tone qualities. We were very surprised and pleased with the similarities. The Maestro strings create a warm, rich sound and have good projection. The only change we suggest to achieve maximum sound is to use a Lenzner Goldbrokat E string. This is now our standard E string for this set.The Goldbrokat E complements the other three strings perfectly.
There are many similarities between the two brands of strings, but when it comes to value for money they couldn't be more different. A set of Maestro Strings will only cost $37.00 (US). You could own three sets of Maestro Strings for the price of one set of some other top brands. Maestro strings also provide an alternative for the viola and cello. A Maestro set for viola is $57.00 and Maestro cello sets are only $87.00.
Spread the word about Maestro Strings and allow others to experience the beautiful resonant qualities of this wonderful new discovery.
