Strong match

Who this is for

  • Replacing a worn or broken A without buying a whole set
  • Violinists already running Peter Infeld strings
  • Keeping a backup A in the case

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players needing a complete set — this is one string
  • Fractional-size violins; 4/4 length won't fit
  • Viola or cello players

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

4/4 size

Full-size violin only. Fractional instruments need shorter strings that reach the peg correctly.

Detail 02

A string only

Single string. A fresh A next to three older strings will sound brighter until it matures.

Detail 03

Peter Infeld line

Thomastik's higher-tier violin line, priced above their standard offerings for a single string.

Detail 04

Synthetic core

Settles faster than plain steel and gives a rounder tone under the bow than steel-core alternatives.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure or confirm your violin is 4/4 before ordering
  2. 02One string only — D, G and E sold separately
  3. 03Expect a day or two of retuning while the string stretches

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Does this come with the other strings?

No. This is the A string alone. The G, D and E are sold separately.

02Will it fit a 3/4 violin?

No. This is sized for a full 4/4 violin. A shorter instrument needs a fractional-length string.

03How often should I replace a violin A?

Depends on play time. Heavy daily practice usually means a few months before tone goes dull and response softens.

04Can I mix this with a different brand set?

You can, though tension and tone across strings will be less even than a matched set.
