The famously distinct and embracing warmth of the Original Larsen sound. Ideal for the classical cello repertoire combining pronounced projection, easy response and rapid tuning stability, Larsens original steel core string continues to define a new benchmark for cello.

A and D strings are wound with a special precision rolled stainless steel flat wire. Meanwhile, the G and C strings are wound with tungsten, providing a deep, warm and focused sound with great power and personality. All four strings are offered in tensions soft, medium and strong.

Larsen fractional size cello strings are purpose designed, perfectly proportioned versions of our full size Originals. The same high grade steel cores wound for A and D in stainless steel flat wire, while G and C are based on a concentric multi-stranded steel core wound with high grade tungsten. All supplied bespoke for 3/4, 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8 size cello.
