Warchal Strings

These strings are very good indeed. High quality materials, good feel under the fingers, and exceptional sound all combine to give the player a rewarding and enjoyable experience. If you have spent time online reading through the bowed string forums sites, you will be aware of the excitement being generated by this small string company from Slovakia.


Of course, as a muscian what you hear "under the ear" is not always what your audience will hear, so you need to bear this in mind with strings. A string that is designed to give good projection may sound a little bright under the ear but be perfect for your audience who are at a distance.



KARNEOL

The KARNEOL string set produces well-balanced velvety tones, giving warmth and texture to your sound. They have a synthetic core, and normally require three days to achieve tuning stability and optimum tone quality.

Ametyst

High Quality synthetic core strings. Ametyst strings offer a pure and focused sound which is brighter than Karneol. Although they are intended for better instruments, they will improve the sound of all levels of violins. They have a synthetic core, and normally take approximately three days to achieve tuning stability and optimum tone quality.
