A "Flexible Spiral" Design Engineered for Versatility
The flexible spiral core follows the tradition of steel strings designed to offer both stability and high responsiveness. This type of construction aims for an effective compromise: a less stiff feel than a solid core, while maintaining the precision and reliability expected on a cello.
For Which Musician and Uses?
This set is particularly suitable for beginner to intermediate cellists looking for a string that is easy to vibrate, as well as for advanced players who want a clear response during rehearsals, orchestra, or chamber music. It adapts well to both bowing and pizzicato passages.
Sound Characteristics
The steel construction with chrome plating promotes clear projection, precise attack, and good definition in the lower register. The flexible spiral core provides a more "lively" sensation under the bow, with quick response and clean articulation, while maintaining body and sustain in pizzicato.
