D'AddarioKaplan Series Viola C String 16+ Long Scale Medium
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For a 16+ long-scale viola, this Kaplan C string uses medium tension, the series option designed to meet the needs of most performers. Kaplan strings are developed for a broad, rich tonal palette with clarity and warmth through the registers, plus responsive bowing and control across changing dynamics. Its sealed pouch helps protect the string from corrosion-causing elements before installation.

Consider the trade-offs
