1LYON & HEALY VIOLIN STRINGS
3Good strings mean a great deal to the violinist. A good violin poorly strung, either with strings of poor quality or of improper sizes, will give most unsatisfactory results, while a good set of strings, properly gauged, will often greatly improve a mediocre instrument. We carry the best grades of strings that the markets of the world can supply. Our strings will always be found to be fresh, clean stock, which is due to the fact that our supplies are received monthly and our trade is very large. Strings in our store do not lie in stock long enough to become dry, hard and brittle. All orders are filled promptly and carefully, and all strings are properly gauged as ordered.
