ThomastikPeter Infeld 4/4 Size Violin Strings 4/4 Size G String
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A single 4/4 violin G string from Thomastik's Peter Infeld line. For players replacing one string, not buying a complete set.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Swapping out a worn or false-sounding G on a full-size violin
- Players running Peter Infeld strings who replace individually
- Trying one string from the line before committing to a full set
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone needing all four strings — this is a single G
- Fractional-size instruments; it is cut for 4/4 only
- Players wanting the cheapest restring — student sets cost less than this one string
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 02
4/4 size
Matched to full-size violin string length. Wrong on a 3/4 or smaller instrument.
Detail 03
G is the lowest string
The thickest, slowest-settling string on the violin — expect the longest break-in of the four.
Detail 04
Peter Infeld line
A distinct Thomastik family. Keeping all four strings in one line gives the most even feel bow to bow.
Detail 05
$41.15 for one string
Single-string pricing at the professional end. A full set of four lands well above $100.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Buy the D, A, and E separately if you are replacing everything
- 02Expect several days of retuning while a new G settles
- 03Confirm your violin is 4/4 — fractional sizes require size-specific strings
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this include all four violin strings?
No. It is the G string alone. The D, A, and E are separate purchases.
02Which string is the G?
The lowest-pitched and thickest of the four, sitting closest to your left thumb side when playing.
03Will it fit a 4/4 violin only?
Yes. It is made for full-size 4/4 instruments. Smaller violins need strings cut for their scale.
04How long before it holds pitch?
A new G is the slowest of the four to settle. Plan on retuning frequently for the first several days.
