Product Fundamentals
- Choose the right material for you Many string makers put a lot of care and thought into the materials for their strings. Larsen is no exception. The E string in this set is made of solid carbon steel and comes with either a ball end or loop end depending on your violins tailpiece. The lower three strings have a multi-filament nylon core. Synthetic cores like this are often used for their similarity in tone to gut while also being stable in different temperatures or humidities. The A and D strings are wound with precision rolled aluminium flat wire and the G string is wound with pure silver. These materials are chosen for their combination of tone colours and deliver a warm sound. There are also options available for different string combinations. The E string is available with gold plating over the steel core this provides extra brilliance to the sound while also being more resistant to corrosion. There is also the option of a steel core A string the steel makes this string brighter in tone making it useful if you have an instrument with a darker tone. You can also get the D string in a silver wound version that matches the G string. The silver in this string makes this darker in tone this can be useful if your instrument has a brighter tone. Larsen Strings Larsen began in 1990 when Laurits Th. Larsen was tasked with obtaining 300 strings for a colleague. Larsen decided to make the strings himself in his garage. In 18 months his first cello A string was produced. Since then Larsen has expanded producing strings for violin and viola as well as cello. Larsen provides their strings in a packaged envelope like many strings. What sets Larsen apart is that they are embossed and sealed in their envelopes ensuring the authenticity and quality of each string from Larsen.
