VIOLA CELLO BASS
Innovation Double Bass Strings have a unique, nonmetallic core which provides acoustic properties close to those of gut and are equally suited for both pizzicato and arco. Particularly known for the low tension strings designed for ‘slap’ bass style and ideally partnered with The Sound Post’s ‘Rockabilly’ blonde bass.
Jargar cello strings are reliable and versatile strings which incorporate a flexible steel core with a winding of thin threads of metal - aluminium, copper and special alloys. These strings produce a brilliant, powerful and yet well-balanced tone and represent a long established choice particularly for cello. JARGAR
