Pirastro Tonica Violin strings set (All sizes)

Description

The Pirastro Tonica violin strings set has a synthetic core making them very stable and producing a lively, well rounded sound. They are very popular for an inexpensive upgrade to a quality string. The set comes standard with a Silver D and Silvery steel ball end E string. For the alternative D or E strings, please see the individual strings.

Pirastro Tonica violin strings set features:

• Tonica strings have a core made from nylon
• They produce a lively well-rounded sound, perfectly balanced across all four strings.
• Responding instantly to any bowing style, they reward both player and listener with an open and direct sound.
• With substantially reduced background ‘hiss’, players can sustain a more even tone helping to achieve smoother string crossings
• Whilst giving positive feed back to your left hand, Tonica strings remain very easy to play right up into the highest positions.
• Projection and brilliance have been upgraded but not to the detriment of the warm sound
• Playing pianissimo has considerably improved.
• All bow strokes are possible resulting in smooth crossings from one note to another.
• Easy right hand articulation and tone attack.
• Due to their medium string tension Tonica strings are suitable for all instruments
