Pirastro says:

• The core material is a high-tensile rope made from carbon steel which is wound with chrome steel.

• round, noble and very warm sound fundament combined with a complex overtone spectrum which results in a deep sound

• great projection

• big tone, powerful volume

• especially suited for arco

• response: instantaneous and very flexible, clear distinction between the notes in fast passages

• only little bow pressure needed for the sound production as the string vibrates very easily

• immediate playability and absolute tuning stability

• 5-string set: Due to the reduced tension of the B5-string the set vibrates freely.
