Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for 15 to 16-1/2 inch violas, this Original A string pairs a solid steel core with a precision-rolled stainless-steel flat-wire winding. The medium-tension version brings brightness and power to the A string while retaining the ball-end format. It is a focused replacement or setup component for players assembling a viola string set around a steel-core A.
