This cello A string is a premium steel-core cello string designed to deliver reliable tuning stability, quick response and a rich, focused tone. Manufactured in Germany by Pirastro, the Chromcor Plus range is known for combining the durability of steel strings with a warmer, darker tonal character than standard Chromcor strings. The A string features a single filament steel core wound with chrome steel, producing a smooth playing feel with excellent projection and articulation across the upper register.
Designed for 4/4 size cellos and supplied in medium gauge, this string is well suited to students, advancing players and orchestral education settings where dependable tuning and long-lasting performance are essential. The chrome steel winding resists corrosion from hand perspiration, helping the string maintain consistent tone and playability during regular classroom, rehearsal and performance use.
The Chromcor Plus A string produces a slightly darker and warmer sound than the standard Chromcor range while still maintaining clarity and definition. This balanced tonal response makes it suitable for ensemble playing, solo repertoire and educational performance settings.
Built with a single filament steel core and chrome steel winding, the string offers exceptional tuning stability and immediate playability. Players benefit from a quick response under the bow and reliable intonation during practice and performance.
The chrome steel winding is highly resistant to corrosion and wear, helping extend the lifespan of the string even in demanding education environments. This makes the Chromcor Plus A string a dependable option for schools, colleges and music services.
