    Hello after you tune the e string you remove the string protector from the bridge or you leave it there? I am new in the violin world greetings from Mexico.

    Hi, I have been watching your violin videos since I started learning about 2 1/2 years ago. I just bought a new set of strings and replaced them but I didn’t like the sound of the a and e of the new set so I kept 2 of my old ones on and 2 new ones. That’s ok right? Or will it cause any sound quality trouble? Thank you so much. My violin all of a sudden started sounding really foggy especially the d and not vibrant but I wasn’t sure if it was because of the strings or the bow so I started by replacing the strings but I think I may need to get my bow rehaired.

    @toffunyxd 7 лет назад +26

    sucky thing when youre a violinist and especially first violin is that your e string gets rusty more often than the lower strings so you have to replace them. good thing is that theyre cheaper than the rest lol

    Hi Esther i have fine tuners on all my strings and I have recently perchased some strings Pirastro Evah Pirazzi with the ball end is this correct or do I need to swap to loop ends for my e string?

    • @estiehwang
      @estiehwang  7 лет назад

      Hey Blake! It depends what type of fine tuners you have, but most of the fine tuners I've seen uses the ball end! Hope that helps :)

    Esther, have you tried Dominants? I am buying them soon. What do you think of them?

    • @bennyboost
      @bennyboost 3 года назад

      I quite like dominants. Very neutral string; not too bright, not too dark, "just right'. Looks like she's got Evah Pirazzi's which are the rolls royce of violin strings and have a super bright brilliant tone.

    Tip: after pulling the string through the “peg hole”. “Crimp/pinch” the end, this will help prevent “slipping”! 🎻

      She was giving you an example away from the violin to make it easier to see. Your peg needs to be in place in the violin like normal to put a new string in.
