Pro quality strings at a reasonable price – I bought the D’Addario Kaplan Cello String Set for my daughter to replace the well worn strings she played all through high school. As she’s since graduated to college orchestra, I thought it was time for an upgrade, and after some research I decided on this set. Though her cello is a relatively inexpensive student model, the improvement in tone and playability is remarkable. Her comment after playing on the new strings was, “Wow! If I’d had these strings in high school orchestra, I would have been first chair the whole time.”

Nice set – I’m a “professional” amateur 😉 who loves playing the cello (just wish for more time in the day). Anyway, my cello needed a set of strings as I haven’t change them in a good while. There are many brands to consider so I researched all day one Saturday and finally settled on this grouping. It received good reviews on several strings websites so I ordered it. It does indeed have good sound…but they need some “playing in”!…I’m working through some serious “howls” right now especially on my G. I’m hopeful however because I did read that it does “play out” after a while. I did put on small mute to tone it down and that seems to work. Even with that, my cello sounds SO much better, I can get through it. Now onto that Christmas music…..

Great Strings – One Step Above Hellicore – I’ve been very satisfied with Hellicore cello strings as they have produced excellent tones for my cellos. Several months ago, I’ve read and watched reviews on Kaplan strings, and wanted to try them out myself. I ordered the set via Amazon at that time, but I did not change the strings until recently, for the Hellicore strings were doing fine, and such a practicality overrode my curiosity to find any difference the Kaplan rings would deliver. (BTW, that was one way to say “I was too lazy to restring. LOL)

Very loud and gutsy sound – I’m using this on an NS electric and it’s fantastic. It’s the first D I’ve used that I’ve ever really thought sounded better than anything else.

I Wish I’d Put These On Years Ago! – I’ve been playing cello for about 25 years and have played mostly school cellos and rentals and my own Hammond Ashley. I’m used to Helicore strings which are bright and sometimes squeaky. I put these Kaplans on my Hammond Ashley and it sounds like a much more expensive cello! It’s richer and fuller and sounds like a professional cello instead of a student cello. I wish I’d restrung with these years ago and I would have enjoyed playing much more than when I felt like I was fighting my cello to make a decent sound because of the squeaky Helicores. Kaplan are the sound you and your cello and everyone else has been looking for! If you are a student or have students, pop Kaplans on NOW so you’ll get to enjoy that lovely richness without enduring years of squeaky frustration!

It sounds like a completely different instrument! – I have a not-so-fancy student model cello with lower end D’Addario strings that were over two decades old (yes, you read that right). I could not believe how beautiful these Kaplan strings sounded. Every string has a beautiful tone and will probably sound even better when they’re completely broken in. I heard that the tension is a little higher on these than other strings, but I don’t feel it’s any higher than my old strings. These are worth the money and sound beautiful. You won’t regret this purchase.
