Jost got a sale flyer from JSI Johnson String Instruments, I looked at the price of Zyex strings, they were on sale.
List Price $337
JSI Price $151.65
JSI SAle Price $134.80
Fiddlershop $34.29
That's almost 4 sets for the price of one.

Thanks Kevin. I'd love to take credit for such a fantastic spread but in all fairness to Johnson String Instruments that is the exact List Price of the Bass strings. They probably made a mistake on their brochure. I'm not a good business man telling you all though. LOL

I think maybe you made a mistake, Kevin. This is the price I found.
I hope this copy and paste worked.
Now I see it. I was wrong. That was the price of the bass strings.

Kevin is my best Allie. I'm happy to have him supporting me. I just want to be fair.

I love Dominants but not the e string. Zyex are great too but don't like the e string sound on them either. I have a Silver Creek acoustic/electric violin and Helicore sound so well on that. But it sure does make a difference on how long you play that fiddle. They really do open up the longer you play and strings will make less of a difference to me anyways.
I did not see this before. A Zyex blurb AND string tension tables. ( No wonder "E" is up tight.)

You sure it wasn't a misprint ? Or were they maybe cello or bass strings ? I just took a look at JSI's on line catalog and they were listed as $35.00 for a set for a 4/4 violin. Still more expensive than fiddlershop.
Update !! I think that must have been the price for Zyex bass strings. the price for a set of Zyex bass strings is listed as $134.00 for a set at JSI.
