Complete Set Of Dominant Violin Strings
The core of Dominant strings is made from a type of nylon called Perlon. This is then wrapped in aluminium which produces a much warmer and rounder sound than metal strings. Dominant strings are quick to hold their tuning - even when first fitted.
Dominant strings are our preferred brand of string, and produce an excellent 'well rounded' tone, whether fitted to student violins or more professional models.
