Thomastik-Infeld Spirocore Cello G String (Tungsten)
Focused projection, muscular depth, exceptional longevity
Introduction
The Spirocore cello G string is a benchmark for clarity and power in the low-mid register. Built on Thomastik-Infeld’s flexible spiral (rope) steel core, the G offers the brand’s signature combination of bright, focused projection and a firm fundamental—ideal for soloists and section leaders who need their low strings to carry in large halls without sacrificing warmth.
Detailed characteristics
This G string’s tungsten winding (model S32) densifies the tone and improves projection compared with chrome or silver versions, keeping the sound tight, brilliant, and articulate. The rope-core design reduces inertia so the string translates bow energy into sound with immediate response and long, ringing sustain, equally effective for arco and pizzicato passages.
Playability & feel
Expect instant bow starts, crisp off-the-string strokes, and confident clarity at both pp and ff. Left-hand feel is stable and predictable across positions; the string tolerates heavy bow pressure without losing centre, yet still whispers smoothly for chamber textures. Spirocore’s reputation for durability and tuning stability means fewer mid-season string changes.
