A powerful, professional-grade G string designed to meet the demands of advanced cellists. Available in both a modern rope core wound with tungsten and a classic solid wire core version, each variant delivers its own unique tonal characteristics. The tungsten-wound option emphasizes warmth, depth, and dynamic projection, making it ideal for soloists and orchestral players alike. Meanwhile, the now-discontinued wire core design provides a more focused, direct tone preferred by some traditionalists. Both options offer exceptional clarity and responsiveness across the lower register.
Tungsten Core (Medium & Forte)
The Larsen Original G string with tungsten winding features a rope core wrapped in tungsten, producing a warm yet focused tone with excellent projection and clarity in the lower register. It is designed to blend seamlessly with the A and D strings of the same series, offering a balanced, powerful sound across the instrument. Cellists appreciate its responsiveness under the bow, tonal flexibility, and ability to support both orchestral and solo repertoire. Available in both medium and forte gauges, this string accommodates a variety of playing styles, allowing musicians to adjust for additional power or subtlety as needed.
Wire Core (Medium & Forte)
The wire core version of the Larsen Original G string, now being discontinued, offers a distinct tonal profile characterized by warmth, density, and a slightly quicker response. Built with a solid wire core instead of a rope core, it delivers a more focused and direct sound that some professionals favor, especially in chamber settings or solo work. While supplies last, both medium and forte gauges are available. Once these strings are gone, they will no longer be produced, making this a final opportunity to obtain a classic variant appreciated by longtime Larsen users.
