Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built for 15 to 16-1/2 in. violas, this Larsen Original D string combines a multi-filament nylon core with precision-rolled aluminum flat wire. Its medium tension is voiced for brightness and power, making it a focused choice when assembling a viola setup around a clear, projecting D string. The ball end keeps the termination format straightforward for instruments that use it.
