Independent shopping perspective
D'Addario's Prelude Series G string is made for a 1/8-size cello and uses a solid steel core. It is built to remain unaffected by temperature and humidity changes, which keeps that variable out of day-to-day string choice. The response is described as easy to bow, with a bright voice that avoids the shrill edge associated with traditional steel strings. It suits classical, modern, jazz, and country playing.
