I was knocking around in the Fiddlershop, looking for some inexpensive replacement/upgrades from the stock Cecilio steel strings on my viola when I came across the following:

SENSICORE VIOLA - F*** NICKEL

http://fiddlershop.com/strings.....ickel-html

Considering how many ways it could be interpreted*, I'm confused as to whether the nickel on these strings are being described as "awesome" or "complete trash."


Or perhaps this little bit of "unnecessary censorship" is merely a Rorschach test to determine the depth of the gutter in which my mind occasionally resides ...

*or perhaps, "FLAT"

Fiddlerman has subsequently edited the listing, making the joke moot.

Nothing to see here. Move along.
