*Please note: Shar has tested many D’Addario Prelude Viola strings and has found that the specific viola sizes printed on the packages do not accurately represent the actual sizes of violas that the strings fit. To avoid confusion, we have removed the sizes from the package images and will list the appropriate viola sizes here until D’Addario’s packaging is corrected so that you can continue to purchase these strings with confidence.

A family craft brought over from Italy. Made in the USA since 1918.
With a family string-making tradition stretching back to at least 1680 in Italy, Charles D'Addario emigrated to the US by 1918 and started making strings in New York. Through the generations new technologies have been adopted and D'Addario now makes an extensive line of strings, all proudly made in the USA.
