PrimPrecision Violin G String 1/2 Size, Medium
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Prim Precision’s 1/2-size G string comes in Medium, the version Prim offers for fractional violin sizes. The steel-core design is described as quick to respond and quick to settle after installation. Flat steel winding is specified for durability, while material placed between the core and winding helps protect against corrosion. For a replacement at the G position, it also brings the stated benefit of consistent pitch through changes in temperature and humidity.
