(More customer reviews)With all due respect to the other review, I had a very different and far more positive experience with these strings. I have two custom Gambas, built in 1971 & 1972, as well as a 5-string fidel built in 1993. I put Pirastros on the Gambas when I first got them, and the strings started to unravel within 3 weeks and several broke within a month. Shortly thereafter, I put Sensicores on, and have NEVER needed to change them to this day! Not one broke or unraveled. On the fidel, one broke at the nut, but there was a small edge, that, once filed, has not sacrificed any strings at all, and they have been played at many concerts, including the White House in 1977. Several possible factors: My gambas are a tad smaller than full-size, measured from a Division Viol, so the tension is less. In addition, after my initial gut-wrenching expenses(Sorry!), I got light rather than medium-gauge strings. They give a great sustain, a very quick response, and at nearly 40 years of age, are easy on the pocket. It's been said by some others that these strings are badly made, but I have had some serious Viol-players from England and America try the gambas and they all felt the sensitivity and response were astounding. Go figure!
