D'Addario Helicore Strings

Helicore violin strings are a favorite with advancing students and professionals alike! Made from stranded steel, Helicores combine the strength and direct purity and brilliance of steel with the soft feel and warmer tone of a rope core. Very durable and long lasting, and totally dependable for the most demanding conditions. Choose standard Orchestral Helicore bass strings for a warmer sound, superior bow response, and a less-sustained orchestra-style pizzicato. Choose Hybrid Helicore bass strings for a more brilliant sound, and for good bow response and easy, resonant pizzicato.
