Spiral steel core. Chrome, silver or tungsten wound.

Hi-tech, top grade, spiral steel core strings.
Spirocore strings have a flexible spiral steel core. This core has greater elasticity than that of conventional strings, which means less inertia and a higher propensity to musical vibration.

Gauge, tension or strength are terms by different manufacturers to indicate the tension of the string at pitch. Medium is suitable for the vast majority of players and should be used as a starting point.

Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-on Why bother buying anything else?
Pros: This string is without doubt the best thing I have ever put on my mid - 19th century (very nice) German cello, and this cello has seen Jargars, Dominants and Larsens. I will never bother buying anything else for the G string now.Even playing the string the moment it was put on, was a revelation.I cannot begin to recommend this string highly enough. Huge sound, absolute power, big, rich, dark, yet beautifully precise in sound. Lovely feel on the left hand, and the string responds to the bow in a very fast way.I would strongly recommend that you just buy it.It left me literally open mouthed. I didn't know my cello had it in it to sound like that on the bottom end.
Cons: Loved everything about it, but some cellists might find the sheer increase in power and extra tones a bit of a shock. There is also the oroblem of getting a good match on your D and A strings, as the Spiracore tungsten really is an incredible 'sound grabber'. Very expensive indeed, but well worth the money.
Other: Now I know why so many professional cellists use Spirocore tungestens on their lower strings. Although expensive, Stringzone are giving the best price on them.
