The string produces the music. On the one hand, the variety and beauty of the timbres depend on the various core materials, on the other hand, they depend on the chosen combination of materials for the winding, just as in the  Thomastik Spirocore Violin String Set

The initial spark for the rise of the company was the development of a manufacturing technology which made the production of the steel core string possible. With it a revolution started within the world of music. Steel core strings became serious competitors of gut strings. The new strings were able to offer convincing proof of their high quality of sound, precision and reliability. Above all this meant tuning stability and a long lifespan of the string for the musician.

New materials such as synthetics from aerospace technology or biocompatible materials like Titanium are treated in the manufacturing process. For example, we can have a direct influence on the typical characteristics of a string with synthetic core through out the duration of its lifespan. Machines with high precision technology are essential for an outstanding quality standard.
