Best 5 String Electric Violins

Designed with quick bow response and ease of use in mind, D’Addario’s Prelude violin strings are the educator’s preferred choice for student strings. Due to their unique blend of warm tone, affordability and durability, they are ideal for the brand-new violinist picking up a bow for the first time, and the more experienced student in the high school string orchestra. Available in both full and fractional sizes, the Prelude line has an option for any age student. The strings have clear markings to teach students how to string their instrument and are easy to put on and tune. D’Addario leverages centuries of string-making experience and advanced computer-controlled winding technology to bring you the most durable, consistent and long-lasting strings.
