ThomastikVision 15" Plus Viola Strings 15+ in. C String
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A single C string from the Vision line, sized for a 15-inch-plus viola. Replacement for a broken or worn C rather than a full re-string.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a dead or broken C on a full-size viola
- Players whose C wore out before the rest of the set
- Keeping a spare low string in the case
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone needing a complete set — this is one string only
- Violas under 15 inches, where the scale is wrong
- Violin, cello or bass 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 02
15 inch and up sizing
String length is matched to full-size viola body length. A shorter body leaves excess winding past the peg.
Detail 03
Synthetic-core Vision line
Settles to pitch far faster than gut and holds tuning better through room temperature and humidity swings.
Detail 04
Ball or loop end
Fine tuners need the matching end. Check what your tailpiece uses before ordering so it seats properly.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01This is one string, not a set — order the others separately if all are worn
- 02Measure body length from the neck joint to the button, not the string
- 03Mixing brands across a set can leave the C sounding uneven
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this a full set of viola strings?
No. This is the C string only, the lowest of the four. The A, D and G are sold separately.
02What size viola do I have?
Measure the back of the body from the neck heel to the bottom edge. Fifteen inches or more takes this string.
03How long before it settles in tune?
Synthetic-core strings stretch for a day or two. Retune several times over the first sessions, then it holds.
04Can I use this on a violin?
No. Viola strings are longer and tuned lower. A viola C will not work on a violin.
