Peter Infeld, Infeld Blue and
Infeld Red Violin Strings
Thomastik's Peter Infeld, Blue Infeld and Red Infeld are still considered cutting edge in
what the very best technology and latest 'know-how" in making great sounding, responsive violin strings.
The Infeld Blues and Reds are quite similar in price,
but can sound different. Always remember that each
violin has a different 'personality' and will require a
bit of trial and error in picking what particular
strings the player likes, and what 'works' best on a
violin. Tonally, the Reds tend to sound a
bit warmer and darker, while the Blues tend to project
more and sound a tad bright or more brilliant in tone.
It can be a bit overwhelming while making a selection in
violin strings.
The Peter Infeld brand (PI) are incredible in that
offer some key advantages that are hard to combine in
string making: They have a super dynamic range, project
very well, yet still feel 'soft' under the left hand. (Up until now, loud projecting strings have always
tended to feel stiff or hard to play under the left
hand.)
A platinum E string? What's all this about?? This is the first real platinum E string made in the
world. To us, 'platinum' seemed a rather harsh
alloy for an E string, but the Peter Infeld E platinums
sound just the opposite: They are extremely
responsive, yet still feel very supple under the left
hand with the warmest sound.
The E Tin and Gold strings offer more variations and
slight differences in tone and response. Remember:
It not only depends on how you play, but how the violin
responds to different strings.
Ball or Loop? All Infeld E strings
come with a removable ball end. The removed ball
end string is then o.k. for loop hook tailpieces.
