Description
The Obligato D string combines a synthetic core with chrome steel winding to offer cellists a warm, colorful midrange tone that bridges the brilliance of the A string and the depth of the G. This medium-gauge string delivers a rich and flexible sound, characterized by nuanced warmth, smooth bow response, and a tactile feel that many players find highly expressive.
What sets this string apart is its ability to handle a broad dynamic range with ease. From lyrical passages to forceful bow strokes, the Obligato D string retains stability and tonal integrity without becoming brittle or dull. Its synthetic core, made from advanced composite materials, closely mimics the elasticity and warmth of gut, but with far greater resistance to temperature and humidity fluctuations. This allows for consistent playability across different environments, making it a dependable choice for performance, travel, and recording.
The chrome steel winding enhances clarity and durability, while also giving the string a clean attack and slightly focused edge—perfect for both solo and ensemble settings. Whether you’re blending with a quartet or standing out in a concerto, the Obligato D string provides control, depth, and fluid transitions from note to note.
