Larsen Original Cello A String – Strong

Catchy Title: Larsen Original Cello A String (Strong) – Maximum Projection with Warm Clarity

Introduction:
For cellists whose instrument thrives with heightened tension or whose performance demands maximum presence, the Larsen Original A-string in Strong tension is built to deliver. Part of the famed Original series, this Strong gauge brings full-bodied projection, robust articulation and Larsen’s trademark clarity.

Detailed Characteristics:
Using the same solid steel core and stainless steel flat-wire winding of the Original line, this Strong A-string increases overall tension (approx. 18.5 kg / 40.7 lbs) to generate more volume and power. The increased tension allows string vibration to drive the instrument’s body more aggressively, producing enhanced resonance, sustain and dynamic range, especially beneficial in large halls or under strong bows.

Playability and Feel:
On the left hand, the Strong A offers a firmer feel under the fingers and may require a slightly stronger finger-action or instrument setup. Bowing the Strong tension yields a full-throttle response: rich, ringing articulation, a confident attack and excellent carry in ensemble or solo settings. Despite the higher tension, the Larsen steel‐core construction ensures tuning stability and a smooth response — not harsh or shrill.

Technical Specifications:
String: A-String
Core: Solid steel
Winding: Stainless steel flat-wire
Tension: Strong (approx. 18.5 kg / 40.7 lbs)

Who is this for?
Perfect for the professional cellist or advanced player whose instrument handles higher tension magnificently and who needs an A-string that can dominate in large venues, deliver strong orchestral projection or respond to a powerful bow technique. Also appropriate for instruments with heavier build or for cellists seeking stronger tonal “push.”

Concluding Summary:
Choose the Larsen Original Cello A String (Strong) when your cello demands more tension for fuller projection yet you still expect Larsen’s crisp clarity, refined tone and reliable behaviour. This string is designed to help you unlock maximum voice and presence without compromising playability or tonal quality.
