specific uses in mind. The Orchestral line has an excellent bow response and
a warm sound. The Solo line is similar to the Orchestral line, except it’s tuned
one whole step higher. The Hybrid line has a good sustain for plucking, yet maintains
a reasonable response when bowing, and is great for both. The Pizzicato line
has a long sustain and a “growl” for pizzicato.

Superflexible strings with a braided steel core
Braided steel core strings for universal use
This string is an advance over conventional solid strings, lying midway in
the path of evolution from the solid core to the advanced spiral core type.
The solid core has been replaced by a cable-type structure made up of braided
steel threads. This reduces the string's stiffness, improving its elasticity.
Superflexible is incomparably responsive and its tone seems to literally radiate
from the instrument, without the least harshness. Durability, tuning stability
and purity of open fifths are unsurpassed. Superflexible is a dependable all-round
string for the discerning musician, at home with every type of bowing and in
every musical situation. Superflexible is not only appropriate for the special
timbre of viola and 'cello but seems to restore the original beauty of tone to
these instruments which other strings often tend to hide.

Spirocore strings with a spiral steel core
Hi-tech, top grade, spiral steel core strings
Spirocore strings are a further technical development of our Künstler Seil
series and have a flexible spiral steel core. This core has greater elasticity
than that of conventional strings, which means less inertia and a higher propensity
to musical vibration.
The sound is full and homogenous, balanced and voluminous. The string has
been calibrated to satisfy the express wish of many artists for an equally effective
arco and pizzicato.
Particularly bassists with a low C extension will value this string's reliability.
Spirocore is also much favored by jazz bassists because of its suitability for
amplified pickup tone. Thomastik-Infeld has tackled notorious 'cello problems
such as wolf notes and muting difficulties with Spirocore C and G strings in
wound tungsten and silver wound.
Spirocore's hi-tech core makes for effortless fingering, responsive bowing,
stable tuning and a very long string life. With Spirocore the steel string's
technical possibilities have been developed to their maximum.
