Thomastik Dominant 1/16 Medium Violin String Set

Since 1970, Dominant violin strings have been a reliable partner for generations of violinists with their distinctive, revolutionary string design, and they are among the most widely used violin strings in the world. Inspired by the sound ideals of the great masters, Dominant strings deliver a vibrant tone through their broad sound, dark core, and brilliant, metallic overtones. By balancing bow speed and pressure at various contact points, they allow violinists to effortlessly modulate a wide range of timbres with a fine bow sound. This unique blend of sound qualities results in an exceptionally honest character that highlights the individual sound of a violin. The Dominant concept of low string tension relieves the instrument and provides a sustainable string choice for old, valuable violins. Due to these characteristics, Dominant strings are used by luthiers as a reference tool for assessing the sound and playability of an instrument.
