The Perpetual A string

When deciding on steel-core or synthetic-based A-strings, the opinions, habits and preferences of the violinists world are different.

In addition to the standard synthetic A-string Pirastro offers a high quality A-string with steel core and chrome steel winding. This A-string has nothing in common with a traditional steel string because of its sound spectrum, it sounds rather round, rich in tones and very full. In combination with the perpetual strings G and D on a synthetic basis, this results in a very organic transition from the D string to the steel A string Perpetual. The fear that the pressure on the instrument may increase excessively due to a steel A string is unfounded in the case of the new steel A Perpetual; this A-string does not burden the violin's body more than a synthetic-based A-string. The steel A is also delivered with a removable ball, so it can be used with all types of fine tuners.

  • seductive playability
  • overwhelming tone volume
  • clearly focused sound projection
  • suggestive sound magic
  • optimal response
  • A steel, chrome steel wound, with ball end (removable)
