Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

This ball-end Tzigane set equips a 4/4 violin with medium-gauge G, D, A and E strings. The G and D use silver-wound multi-filament nylon cores; the A uses the same core type with aluminum winding, while the E is solid, unwound carbon steel. Larsen describes the set as quick to play in, with a smooth, saturated, warm sound plus focus and projection. Its mellow character is intended to accompany brighter-to-neutral sounding violins.

Strong match

Who this is for

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Violins requiring loop-end strings.
  • Players specifically after the heavy Tzigane set’s greater volume and bow resistance.
