The Jargar Silver Sound Viola G String offers an alternative option to the standard chrome steel string. Wound with pure silver it produces a softer warmer tone making it perfect for the lower strings on the viola. Its sound is also said to be more like natural gut than the chrome steel wound standard strings as well making the Silver Sound G string ideal for folk or historical performers. Jargar offer their viola strings in three different tensions Forte (heavy) Medium and Dolce (light). Lighter strings tend to respond better to the bow and are less tiring for extended periods of playing. While having a slower response than the lighter tensions heavier ones tend to produce a louder and more intense sound. Medium sits in between these. Neither is better than the other and you should consider which will match your playing style and tonal preferences the best.
This product would be ideal for professional musicians looking for high-quality, long-lasting violaglass strings with a strong, rich sound, particularly suited for the viola.
