Description
Music strings of the highest quality – this is both the incentive and obligation of Thomastik-Infeld. Based in the heart of Vienna, we have been developing and producing strings with the vastest range of tone colors since 1919, for bowed, plucked and world music instruments.
Details about these strings:
Core: specially twisted steel rope core; settles in quickly, intonates extremely well; exceptional tuning stability
Tone: dark and warm with excellent resonance; wide range of tone colors; easy to blend; pizzicato is open and free
Sound: outstanding projection with moderate effort; sustains better than most other arco (bowing) string brands
Playability: quick response to the bow; soft under your fingers; fantanstic hybrid capability
Belcantos are for 3/4 size (and possibly some 7/8 or 4/4 depending on scale length) basses, with a scale length up to 110cm (43.3 inches). They have a steel rope core and are chromium wound.
