Two new sets that have different properties but work well together: Direct & Focused and Warm & Broad.
Specify D&F or W&B when ordering. You can mix and match. Winding at the ball end is Larsen’s yellow with black spiral, so you need to see the peg end to differentiate from other Larsens. Green is D&F while the addition of an orange band indicates W&B. The number of black rings on the green winding indicates pitch: one for A, two for D, etc.
These strings are available in one tension, no other versions (like Soloist) at this time.
A $64.30 Carbon steel core with multialloy winding 18.4 kg
D $63.00 Carbon steel core with multialloy winding 14.4 kg
G $144.75 Rope spiral core with tungsten/chrome winding 14.0 kg
C $167.25 Rope spiral core with tungsten/chrome winding 13.7 kg
Thomastik’s comments are below, but we remind you strings react differently with each cello and player!!!
They share a similar power to Spirocore G and C, but with a more refined sound. They provide a similar ease of play to Rondo, but with added openness, sound color, and yet a more focused sound.
They strike a balance between Rondo and Versum Solo, offering the versatility of Versum Solo without requiring as much effort from the player.
