Thomastik Infeld THDP-02B violin string A-2 4/4 medium, steel core, chrome wound

Thomastik Infeld THDP-02B violin string A-2 4/4 medium, steel core, chrome wound In comparison to THDP-02 [5.5 kg], the THDP-02B [6.1 kg, removable ball end] has a considerably smaller diameter. This means that THDP-02B responds much faster than THDP-02. Due to the steel core, the string achieves pitch stability immediately after being strung and offers a very high level of resistance to bow pressure. In addition, the chrome winding makes it extremely corrosion-resistant and bestows the string with a particularly long lifespan.
Should a player have problems with the lifespan of synthetic A-strings in general due to aggressive sweating, THDP-02B is the ideal solution. It also reduces buzz tones (= small wolf tone).

It has a higher dynamic range (= can be played very quietly and very loudly) than THDP-02, however, it also features a decreased tonal modulation capacity, which is a typical characteristic of a steel string. Both strings have a very good brilliance to warmth ratio. After a break-in period of around five hours, THDP-02B becomes a touch more brilliant and open. This supports the brilliance of the E-string, but can also induce whistling in sensitive E-strings such as THDP-01AU or THDP-01PT. However, THDP-01 is not influenced by this.

In general, steel core strings have a higher string tension; this must also be taken into consideration with THDP-02B so as to avoid potentially overburdening the instrument. When deciding on the THDP-02B, we recommend using a fine tuner, since even the smallest of changes when winding up a string can result in extreme changes in the frequency, similarly to a steel E-string.
