NEW COMPAS 180 SUIT

Compas 180 Suit are suitable to be played in orchestral and solo tuning.

NEW CELLO STRINGS !!!

Velvet, famous for its double bass strings, now offers strings for cellos, a world novelty!

The strings are made with a core of pure natural silk, an organic material very similar to
gut that - thanks to an additional textile fibre and a slow winding process - rules out the
gut’s tuning and longevity problems.

The strings feature a tension similar to steel strings and a very fast and vibrant response with rich harmonics, strong bass and powerful projection.

These strings undoubtedly enrich the Cellist’s performance.

Our classical string designed for orchestral tuning.

The use of up-to-date textile fibres makes the strings particularly elastic, allowing (the instrument) increased amplitude of vibration, and producing a full, rich, open sound.

The pizzicato is strong with long sustain. The strings respond perfectly to the harmonics, which are crystal-clear.

Compas 180 requires no change in playing technique by the instrumentalist, while opening up new possibilities in terms of sound, tone and modulation.
