D’Addario H412 Helicore Long Scale Viola D String

The D’Addario H412 Helicore Viola D String is for instruments with a 16″ or longer scale. Helicore strings are justifiably popular. They offer warm, rich sound that’s remarkably similar to gut or synthetic core strings. Unlike gut, however, Helicore strings’ all-metal construction renders them impervious to fluctuations in humidity and temperature.

D’Addario Helicore strings have a multi-strand high-carbon steel core for flexible response and range. The core is overlaid with exotic alloy windings that provide extremely quick bow response and outstanding projection. The end result is a versatile viola string with very long playing life that is extremely stable under all playing conditions. Various scales and tensions (select from dropdown menu).
