Medallion Strings

Finding great student-level strings for violin, viola and cello at a low price can be challenging. The cheapest strings usually are not comfortable to play and have a subpar sound, while strings with a better sound still cost more than you want to spend.

At Johnson String Instrument, we constantly look for the best products in every price range so you can be confident in your purchase. That is why we are excited for our newest product, Medallion strings: they combine the sound quality and playing comfort you need with the price you want.

Available in either synthetic or steel core, Medallion strings are the perfect solution for student players.
