Thomastik-Infeld Versum Solo Cello String Set (A–D–G–C)
Brighter power, refined warmth—built for the soloist
Introduction
The Versum Solo set is voiced for greater brilliance and projection than the standard Versum, while maintaining a warmly musical core. The result is a set that cuts through concerto accompaniment and still blends elegantly in chamber and orchestral contexts.
What’s inside & how it sounds
A & D: Carbon-steel cores with multi-alloy windings—a clear, singing top and articulate midrange that speak immediately and stay stable.
G & C: Steel spiral (rope) cores with tungsten/chrome windings—a focused, projecting low end with muscular depth and sophisticated colour.
Together, the four strings deliver fast response, wide dynamics, and excellent tuning stability across the full register.
Playability & feel
Versum Solo strings are quick to react, accept heavy bow pressure, and retain clarity at pianissimo—ideal for crisp articulation, soaring cantabile, and punchy contemporary techniques. Break-in is brief, and the set remains consistent over long sessions.
