# D'Addario Zyex composite short-scale viola C string

If you're looking for a string that offers exceptional tuning stability, quick response, and great complexity of tone, the Zyex Composite strings from D'Addario are hard to beat. They're not quite to the level of Pirastro's Evah Pirazzis, but this is a big step in that direction, for substantially less money. This Zyex short-scale viola C string is the right length and tension for a 5-string violin.
