Description

Multi stranded steel core strings. Medium tension.

Helicore violin strings are crafted with a multi-stranded steel core, resulting in optimal playability while producing a clear, warm tone. The smaller string diameter provides quick bow response. Premium quality materials combined with skilled workmanship produces strings known for excellent pitch stability and longevity.

Very popular string, particularly suited to electric instruments and those who prefer the bright, quick tone of metal strings.

Using a loop end E? The use of a protector to prevent the tuner hook breaking the string is essential with loop end E strings. We cannot accept claims for strings broken by the adjuster hook. Click here to purchase this item.

Isle of Man, United Kingdom

Beginner

A good work horse of a string.

Pros: Competetive price. Stronger tone than Pirastro - at least under the ear, and very responsive. Strings settle in very quickly with little stretching. Fairly true across 5ths at first though this deteriorates with age.

Cons: G varies considerably in tone from string to string and sometimes has to be abandoned. Expensive when that happens. Though little initial stretching, still takes a while for strings -especially D and G to become mellow/pliable. Mr experience - strings break without warning.
