The D'Addario Prelude violin D string features a solid steel core with aluminum winding, delivering warm, resonant tone and exceptional durability for student violinists and school music programs.

Designed specifically for beginning and intermediate players, the Prelude D string offers reliable intonation and responsive playability.
