Larsen StringsTzigane Violin D String 4/4 Size Silver Wound, Heavy Gauge, Ball End
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For the D position of a 4/4 violin, Larsen’s heavy Tzigane string uses a silver-wound, multi-filament nylon-core design with a ball end. The heavy tension gives the player more bow resistance and is specified to produce greater volume than the medium option. Across the Tzigane line, the sound is described as smooth, warm and saturated, with focus and projection. It is positioned as a mellow complement to brighter-to-neutral sounding instruments.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a ball-end D string on a 4/4 violin with a brighter-to-neutral character.
- Players who prefer the heavier Tzigane D’s increased volume and bow resistance.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Violins set up for a loop-end D string.
- Players who want the medium-tension D option rather than the heavy version.
