Dominant Pro Violin String Set

50 years after the debut of the most popular 'Dominant' string, Thomastik-Infeld presents its latest offering: DOMINANT PRO.

This set is the collaborative result of daily consultations with top-class, international musicians who have often requested the development of an additional, similar set but with expanded possibilities of the existing DOMINANT strings. The set is darker but more focused than the pre-existing DOMINANT strings, with greater resistance to bow pressure & a larger dynamic range.

Available in medium tension, the Pro strings are exceptionally powerful with a 'bell-like' tonal character. Suitable for soloists, chamber musicians and orchestra players.

DP01 - The 'E' string is a tin-plated, carbon steel core string. A protective layer of nickel is placed between the outer coating of tin and the steel core in order to increase the corrosion resistance compared with conventional tin-plated strings. Features a removable ball-end.

DP02 - The 'A' is an aluminium-wound synthetic core string.

DP03A - The 'D' is a silver-wound synthetic core string. The tonal lifespan of the entire violin string set is chiefly dependent upon this string. With the help of a silver alloy, Thomastik were able to combine the advantages of a silver string with those of the aluminium 'D' found in the standard Dominant set.

DP04 - The 'G' is a silver-wound synthetic core string.
