BLUE The Blue is the first Velvet string that doesn’t have a silk core. Instead of natural silk it has a synthetic core that took almost 2 years to develop. We wanted to make a more affordable string that still sounds like a Velvet product, following our philosophy: great articulation, big volume, great sustain and equal tension on all 4 strings. The Blue has it all, it’s a bit brighter than the silk cousins, but offers a fast response with a great articulation and nice volume. This is a string with a student price but with a professional sound. So far the response has been tremendous, from students to professional jazz players, these strings have been creating quite a buzz. tension 25Kg per string

For Double Bass and Cello amplification, Velvet recommends the use of Schertler equipment.
