PrimPrecision Violin E String 4/4 Size, Heavy
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Prim’s full-size Precision Heavy E string is the line’s Orchestra/Heavy version. Its steel-core construction is described as fast responding, with a bright, warm tone; the Heavy specification adds the stated volume and brightness associated with this version. It is also designed for quick settling and consistent pitch through temperature and humidity changes. Flat steel winding and material beneath the winding support durability and corrosion protection. Choose it when replacing the E string on a 4/4 violin with Prim’s heavier orchestral option.
Strong match
