|

I recently replaced my strings. Both E and A were starting to whistle or squeal (or whatever the term may be). Replaced ALL my strings and low and behold E string still whistles but now the D string is kind of like buzzing. Not sure if its the string or my bowing or my violin? I might also add that my first set were Pirastro Tonica's and my new set are dominants with the Passione E string. What could be causing the buzzing on the D and the whistling E? I might add that these issues were not apparent prior to the old strings wearing out. Actually they weren't that old...about two months. Thanks in advance. |

Overlooked this post. Have you solved this problem yet? |

The problem I had with the buzzing D string has sorted itself out. Not sure why it buzzed the first few days but at least its stopped. The E string has also improved with use and has only whistled once in the past couple of days when I go from the d on the A string to the open E. But if I run into any more problems or if they return I'll let you know. Thanks. |
