Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Single medium-gauge G string from Larsen's Soloist cello line. For players restringing one string on a full setup rather than a whole set.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Replacing a worn G without changing the rest of the set
  • Cellists already running Larsen Soloist strings
  • Keeping a spare G for performance work

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Anyone needing a full set, this is one string
  • Players wanting light or heavy tension instead of medium
  • Budget restrings, since a full set at this price adds up

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

G string only

The third string on a cello. A complete restring means buying A, D and C separately.

Detail 02

Soloist series

Larsen's higher-tension line, aimed at projection over a hall rather than a blended chamber sound.

Detail 03

Medium gauge

The standard tension in the line. Lighter is easier under the bow, heavier pushes more volume but feels stiffer.

Detail 04

Higher tension than standard lines

More downforce on the bridge, so the instrument speaks louder but can feel tighter under the left hand.

Detail 05

$105 for one string

A full Soloist set runs several times this, so budget accordingly if you are replacing everything.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01One G string only, not a set
  2. 02Mixing gauges across a set changes tension balance on the bridge
  3. 03Higher tension may need the bridge and soundpost checked after

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Is this a full set of cello strings?

No. It is the G string alone. Larsen sells the A, D and C separately in the same Soloist series and medium gauge.

02What is the difference between Soloist and regular Larsen?

The Soloist line runs higher tension, built for projection in a solo setting. The standard line is lower tension and blends more easily.

03Can I use this with non-Soloist strings?

Yes, and mixed sets are common. Tension across the strings will be uneven, so the G may feel and speak differently from its neighbors.

04Will it fit a 3/4 cello?

Check the size on the packaging before ordering. Soloist strings are made in specific sizes, and a mismatch will not seat correctly.
