ThomastikSuperflexible 4/4 Size Violin Strings 4/4 D String
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Single D string for a 4/4 violin, Thomastik Superflexible. Buy it to replace one broken or dead string rather than a whole set.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a snapped or false-sounding D without buying a full set
- Keeping one spare D in the case for gigs
- Students on a 4/4 violin already using Superflexible
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players needing a full set — this is one string only
- Fractional-size violins; this is cut for 4/4
- Mixing into a set of a different brand and tension
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
Cut for a full-size violin. Too long for 3/4, 1/2 or smaller student instruments.
Detail 03
Superflexible line
A steel-core family string. Tension and feel differ from synthetic-core sets, so mixing brands changes response.
Detail 04
Violin-specific
Not for viola, cello or fiddle-style alternate tunings. Scale length and pitch are matched to violin D.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your violin is 4/4, not 3/4 or smaller
- 02Check your other three strings are also Superflexible for even response
- 03New strings stretch — expect several days of retuning before pitch settles
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this a full set of violin strings?
No. This is the D string only. The E, A and G are sold separately.
02Will this fit a 3/4 violin?
No. It is made for 4/4 full-size violins. A 3/4 instrument needs a 3/4 string.
03Can I mix this with another brand's strings?
You can, but tension and tone differ between brands, so the D may sit unevenly against the others.
04How long until it holds pitch?
Plan on retuning frequently for the first few days while the string stretches and settles.
