Features
Nickel wound clarity and durability
Nickel winding over a steel core delivers a balanced, musical tone with a touch of brightness and solid projection. The smooth, even wrap promotes a clean attack and stable sustain, while nickel’s natural resistance to wear helps the string hold its sound and feel for longer across rehearsals, lessons and performances.
Secure loop end for fast fitting
The loop end is tightly formed for a dependable connection to standard loop tailpieces, aiding quick string changes and consistent tuning stability. Its robust loop wrap reduces stress at the anchor point, helping to minimise premature breakage where strings most commonly fail.
Precision 0.024 gauge control
The accurate 0.024 inch wound gauge offers predictable tension and response, making it easy to balance feel and intonation across mixed sets. It is a practical choice when replacing a single string or tailoring your preferred gauges for specific tunings and playing styles.
Perfect as a spare or custom build
Sold individually, this string is ideal for keeping in a case or classroom drawer for immediate fixes, and for building bespoke sets to suit your instrument and repertoire. It provides reliable, repeatable performance without the cost of purchasing a full multi-string pack.
