Pirastro Insula violin strings give a natural, rich sound that fully brings the soul of your instrument to life. The result is a warm, full, and expressive tone that effortlessly fills any large concert hall.
The Insula violin strings are made of a pioneering synthetic core material. This has enabled us to replicate the molecular flexibility of natural gut, while at the same time offering the power and stability of the best modern high-performance fibers.
Sound & Playability:
- Sound Character: A very warm, rich, and expressive tone with many overtones. Captures the warm, deep, and noble character of the classic gut string sound.
- Projection: Strong, smooth, and rich in tonal color, with high stability – even under the most powerful strokes of the bow.
- Response: Precise, direct, and effortless, with an ultimate sensitivity to every movement of the bow and fingers.
- Sense of 'Depth': The bow can sink beautifully into the string, which provides a sense of limitless depth in the sound.
- Short Play-in Time & Tuning Stability: The Insula strings need a minimal play-in time. They remain reliably in tune, even with fluctuations in temperature or humidity.
Material per String:
- E-string: Steel with a removable ball-end.
