Robust, inexpensive solid core steel strings With their solid core, these steel strings are strident in tone and feel, lending the sound brilliance and enhancing the player's confidence on the instrument.

They have been produced in consistent quality since 1920, constantly being updated to incorporate the latest technical findings and our wealth of musical experience. Precision strings are ideal for students, ensemble players and folk musicians. This standard model has remained popular to this day, not only because of its price range but its long playing life.

Superflexible 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 The solid core has been replaced by a cable-type structure made up of braided steel threads.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. Medium Gauge

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. 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. Medium

Dominant Nylon core strings Comparable in sound to gut, without gut's disadvantages These strings have a highly flexible, multi-strand nylon core and cater for artists who feel uncomfortable with steel strings. The resounding success of our Dominant string owes a lot to its similarity in tone and response to gut strings, without gut's attendant drawbacks. The sound of the Dominant string is full and mellow, yet rich in overtones. Its radiance, its ability to project sound without being metallic, comes to the fore both in arco and pizzicato. Other advantages are Dominant's effortless response to intricate fingering and its tuning stability even under extreme atmospheric conditions. But Dominant's beauty of tone is not as long lasting as that of a steel string, a price the discerning musician will be prepared to pay for this quality of sound. Dominant strings should be changed at appropriate intervals to ensure continuity of tone color. Medium Gauge
