Red Label Pearl

Old Fiddler

Etc.

The Hill Heavy E is blue at both the ball and the peg ends.

There is no Infeld Red/Blue for viola, so you could omit the C string.

You might also want to put the peg rings for the various types of Vision strings - black for Titanium Solo, brown for Solo, turquoise/green for Titanium Orchestra etc. More details can be found here: http://www.thomastik-infeld.com/upload/TI_violin%20folder%2005_07print.pdf

You have misspelt Superflexible in the Thomastik range (you wrote Superflexable).

Otherwise this site is very informative and helpful! Did you ever plan on adding the colours of the E strings at the ball/loop end for the various D'Addario/Pirastro/Larsen strings? Often they are different (they will take one colour from the spiral wrapping).

I was thinking about omitting the e string since most are just one of the two colors of the spiral and adding each E string would be a ton of extra strings. For the update I'm planning on making a note of that at the top, as well as how the "peg rings" work.

Thank you. I had black and white for Corelli but was told its pink. The violin/viola difference is helpful.

December 17, 2013 at 06:00 PM · Are sure there's a violin/viola difference for the Crystals? I think they look exactly the same at the tailpiece end.

December 18, 2013 at 05:34 PM · Andrew: when you say they look the same, do they look Black/White, or Black/Pink?

December 18, 2013 at 05:47 PM · Both look pale pink with black spiral to me...

December 18, 2013 at 10:35 PM · I've used both and I'd say that the viola is pink/black, while violin is white/black. For violin colours see this: http://www.rdebey.com/string_colors.htm

It also strikes me that the E string on the heavy Crystal set is purple at each end, not blue. (The medium set has a blue E.)

December 19, 2013 at 05:32 AM · Well. I will be keeping it as black and white for now. Hopefully I will hear from Corelli directly soon. I have updated the site. I feel that the images look very small/hard to read. Until I am able to figure out how to fix this without looking to cluttered I have accented the PDF where you can download a very readable PDF.

Thank you for everyones help.
