THOMASTIK Dominant PRO Violin E

• THOMASTIK Dominant PRO Violin E

In comparison to the other E-strings, ^NO.DP01SN [diameter 0.262 mm, 7.9 kg, removable ball end] has a smaller diameter and is therefore ideally suited to instruments with a normal or high string position (high bridge or lowered fingerboard). In comparison to the standard ^NO.DP01, ^NO.DP01SN is not underlaid with nickel and is therefore somewhat more susceptible to corrosion. Thanks to a thicker layer of tin, however, it sounds warmer than ^NO.DP01 and much warmer than ^NO.DP01AU and ^NO.DP01PT.

^NO.DP01SN also has the lowest string tension of all DOMINANT PRO E-strings, which means that almost no strain is exerted on the instruments and they can be greatly opened in terms of sound. This leads to a good bow response and also promotes the instrument’s radiance. Its low string tension means that it has the lowest resistance to bow pressure of all the DOMINANT PRO E-strings.
