WHAT SIZE STRINGS DOES MY VIOLA NEED?

Our viola strings are sized by instrument body length in inches. To measure your viola to determine the size sting your instrument needs:

Turn the instrument over and measure its body length along its longest axis (not including the neck or scroll). Then, select the appropriate size string based on that measurement here:

12” = Extra-Extra-Short Scale
13”-14” = Extra-Short Scale
14”-15” = Short Scale
15”-16” = Medium Scale
16”-17” = Long Scale
17”+ = Extra Long Scale

If you measure 15.5" for instance, you will need a medium scale D'Addario viola string (for instruments 15" to 16" inches in length). 

NOTE: The instrument sizes in our catalog are recommendations only.
