String ID?

[lowlandtrees]

I changed strings…isn’t the grass always greener? I was so careful…tightened them over a week …but the D snapped. I have no idea what they are. It’s a 4x4 instrument. Can’t decide whether to replace all of them (with another older set) or buy a new D. It seems such a hassle…I have psych myself up to it.

The stoppers at the end of the strings are stamped with the note. Anyone recognize the make?

Maybe Thomastik Mittel?

Yes very possible….closest match that I can see on that table. Thanks

That red at either end, they look like Spirocore Mittel to me. That's what mine is wearing here.

Yeah. I can't get at all of them but the B string does have a B on It. Oddly enough I'd never noticed that until you mentioned it here.
