ThomastikAlphayue Series Viola C String 15+ in., Medium
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The medium-gauge Alphayue C string is listed for 15+ inch viola and gives the lowest-string replacement a defined series character: quick bow response, a supple playing feel, and a full, dark fundamental with brighter overtones. It is designed for projection and power, then settles in over a short break-in period. Stable tuning and stated lifespan make it a sensible maintenance replacement for a basic student viola when the C string needs renewing.
Strong match
Who this is for
