Thomastik 135B-4/4 Dominant Violin Set - Steel E, Ball - 4/4

Thomastik-Infeld's Dominant strings are widely recognized as "the reference standard”, and are legendary for distinctive tone and playability. The resounding success of the Dominant string owes a lot to its similarity in tone and response to gut strings, without gut's attendant drawbacks. The sound of the Dominant string is full and mellow, yet rich in overtones. Its radiance and ability to project sound without being metallic comes to the fore both in arco and pizzicato. Other advantages are Dominant's effortless response to intricate fingering and its tuning stability even under extreme atmospheric conditions. But Dominant's beauty of tone is not as long lasting as that of a steel string, a price the discerning musician will be prepared to pay for this quality of sound. Dominant strings should be changed at appropriate intervals to ensure continuity of tone color. Instrument: Violin Pitch: Set with Aluminum Wound E w/Ball End Size: 4/4
