The Thomastik Infeld THDP-02 Dominant Pro A string is a high-quality single string for 4/4 violins with a synthetic core and aluminum winding. This string is designed to deliver a powerful, rich tone with a strong fundamental focus. Thanks to its carefully tuned construction, the string offers an excellent balance of brilliance and warmth, delivering a spacious, bell-like sound that is well-represented even in the softest dynamic range.
The A string responds immediately to the bow and offers a wide range of tonal colors with a high degree of modulation. It is exceptionally resistant to bow pressure and, together with the E string (THDP-01), forms a rich, expressive combination that will particularly appeal to soloists. During the first few hours of playing, the string sounds slightly warmer and more supple, after which it opens up and becomes brighter, with a slightly increased tension under the fingers. This tone remains stable throughout the string's life.
