Thomastik-Infeld launched new Versum Solo cello strings at Musikmesse with an exclusive seven-day discount deal available through Barnes & Mullins in the UK.
Available as single A and D strings (RRP £44.10) as well as a combo pack containing both A and D strings together (RRP £88.20) – Versum Solo strings are steel core, multialloy wound strings that have been developed to be used alongside other G and C cello strings.
To celebrate the launch of Versum Solo strings in the UK, exclusive distributor Barnes & Mullins is offering a 20 per cent discount to all of its dealers off pre-orders of Versum Solo A and D single and combo string packs for one week. (Available until Wednesday 12th April). Having been developed to compliment Thomastik-Infeld Spirocore cello strings, the offer includes 20 per cent off Spirocore G and C packs when ordered with a pack of new Versum Solo strings.
The Versum Solo A string is noted for its “smooth, saturated warm tone colours and soloistic brilliance that excels in both the delicate Pianissimo as well as the rich Fortissimo” according to the firm.
The Versum Solo D string has been developed to compensate for the common flaws of D-strings and offer a “captivating presence, textured body and vast colour spectrum”. It is manufactured from ultra-light aluminium and a synthetic coated copper winding to achieve a much smaller string diameter than commonly expected from a D-string.
