March 2010 Velvet Strings just introduced a new set of strings in the Garbo family, the Velvet Garbo G Gut. Like it’s name says, the Garbo G Gut has a high quality European made plain G Gut string. The other 3 strings on the set are Garbo Light D string and a regular Garbo A and E string. Fat Garbo sound on the bottom with a gut old school touch on the upper strings. Come try our new set at the MusikMesse in Frankfurt. Velvet Strings will be this year at the Musikmesse in Frankfurt (24-27/03) at the Hall 3.1 on the stand F85A (next to the Schertler stand). You will have the chance to test our strings together with Schertler amplification, for an appointment please contact us!

July 08 Velvet introduces the new BLUE-SET of Strings for Doublebass June 07 NEW COMPAS 180 SUIT - Same manufacturing and material as Compas 180 but in a lower tension version. Compas 180 Suit are suitable to be played in orchestral and solo tuning. January 07 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.cellostrings.htmlblue.htmlcompas.htmlcompas.htmlcellostrings.htmlshapeimage_4_link_0shapeimage_4_link_1shapeimage_4_link_2shapeimage_4_link_3shapeimage_4_link_4

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