ThomastikSuperflexible 4/4 Size Violin Strings 4/4 G String
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Single G string for 4/4 violin from Thomastik's Superflexible line. For replacing one broken or worn G rather than buying a full set.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a G that broke or went dull mid-set
- Students who need one string, not four
- Keeping a spare G in the case
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players needing a full restring, since this is one string
- Fractional-size violins, this is 4/4 only
- Anyone wanting a matched set from a single order
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. On a 3/4 or smaller the length and tension will be wrong.
Detail 03
Superflexible line
Thomastik's rope-core steel family, so it settles in fast and holds pitch soon after installation.
Detail 04
Steel rope core
More stable under temperature and humidity swings than gut, and slower to go false than plain steel.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01This is one G string, not a four-string set
- 02Confirm your violin is 4/4 before ordering
- 03Check your tailpiece has a fine tuner, steel strings tune sharply
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this come as a set?
No. This is the G string on its own. The D, A and E are sold separately in the same line.
02Will it fit a 3/4 violin?
No. It is a 4/4 string. A smaller instrument needs the matching fractional size or the string will not fit properly.
03How long before it holds pitch?
Steel rope core strings stretch far less than synthetic or gut, so expect it to settle within a day of normal playing.
04Can I mix this with strings from another line?
Yes, players do it regularly. Tension and feel across the set will not be uniform, so it may take adjusting to.
