The Larsen Il Cannone violin string set with a Warm and Broad A string is a celebration of Niccolò Paganini’s legacy of contribution to violin technique and revolutionary soloist sound. Each string in the set is designed to bring out the best in your instrument, with excellent playability and good resistance to the bow. They have a synthetic multi-filament core, with the Warm and Broad A wound in aluminum; the D and G wound with silver; and the E made of solid carbon steel. Available in medium tension with a ball end, they produce a powerful, clear tone and have a fast and easy response, especially in spiccato.
