Hi, I'm Kaestra, I'm new here, and greatly in need of help. 
My neighbor's friend died recently, and I ended up inheriting a box of violin strings. Great...but not. Some are nicely packaged and labeled, and some....are not. I am having the hardest time sorting through the strings, pulling them out of a giant strings-knot, and trying to figure out what is what. You'd think it would be easy to tell, but you'd be surprised. Most G's and E's are fairly simple to find, but telling D's and A's apart is nearly impossible. Is there any way to tell which string is which without putting each of them on my violin and tuning them to a proper pitch? Please help, because I totally don't have the patience.

I am afraid you're going to get a hard time... 
I'm not an expert on violin strings, but the strings do have different-coloured "upper ends"(the end where the pegs are). The problem is that different manufacturers tend to have different colour schemes, but if you figure out a certain manufacturer's scheme you could apply it to strings that look alike in the other end. er... did this make any sense?

Its really hard to tell which is A and which is D. To prevent the hassle simply go to a music shop or to a violin teacher and im sure they will know
