Pirazzi Gold 20:53 "Fuller version of standard pirazzi's- still strong resonance" Obligato 23:20 24:06 "Much thicker string, hard to get going" Perpetual 26:59 "Combination of Pirazzi and Larsen, sustain well" Piranito 29:37 "Hardy, long string life" warm D, G, and C, screechy A D'addario Helicore 34:48 "Only downfall is the A string is cutting" Full, strong D'addario Kaplan 37:04 37:38 "Can't complain, very even sound, strong, higher tension" Combinations Larsen Medium A & D + Spirocore Tungsten G & C 41:27 "mostly used combination by professionals" Larsen Medium A + Pirazzi D + Spirocore Tungsten G & C 45:53 "strong, easier transition, 600 thumbs up" Larsen Medium A & D + Larsen Magnacore G & C 48:11 "Aggressiveness at bottom, mellowness at top" Oh look a compilation at the end 49:50... that I just realized xD

Such an expensive mistake if you don't have some idea of what you REALLY need for your cello to sound it's best. Yes the experts can do what they do , as yourself but it's down to personal preference in the end so at least you can tell the experts what you want from the sound on your precious cello and what you can afford 😀😆 thank you for this video.

Very helpful video and I wanted you to know that I really appreciate the work you put into sharing this with us. I've listened to it many times over the years. It's nice to imagine playing a better instrument with incredible strings but it's hard to justify spending so much on both when the budget is so tight. My hope is that since I just play in a community orchestra - the specific timbre of my strings won't be that important and I can get away with many more years on the original strings.

Deep, powerful yet beautiful sound and the strings are much easier to play. big thanks to you Richard for all those Strings changes ;)

The A string is definitely too "metallic" for my preferences and doesn't seem to be in keeping with the tone of the other 3, if that makes sense. What would you recommend for the A (and D) string?

Nice video, only issue is that to be allowed to shine properly, each string change has to be accompanied with minor adjustments (soundpost or bridge position at least). Only then can you really tell what the best option is, even if what you showed us was really interesting, I just think people should understand there's much more depth to it than just buying new strings.

Hi Richard, thanks for an excellent test and the effort you put into it. I have an inquiry: I have, as many cellists out there, the C,G Spirocores and the D, A Larsens on my cello. But I have noticed that the G Spirocore tends to be much brighter than the C string, sometimes touching the border of ugliness. Which G strings do you recommend to try as substitute?
@rbodinnar
@rbodinnar 6 жыл бұрын
Thanks :) The Spirocore G string tends to vary a bit... to the extent that I sometimes have a bunch of 'too bright' spirocore G strings sitting aside for the right cello. The first G string that comes to mind is the Evah pirazzi. Its right in the middle of the Brightness of the Spirocore C and the Larsen D. I found the Jargar superior G string to be brighter than expected, but not as bright as the Spirocore , so would be another option. Evah gold would work too, but I think the plain Evah would be my first choice :)

I know the stardard larsen C and G are a lot warmer sounding than the Magnacore C and G, so maybe that will be true for the a and d as well....

I bought a student cello in the range of €550 from Thomann and the D and C string sounds very dull when you take a note on them. Open sounds somewhat okay but it's like an overtone is silencing them when you take any other notes on them. It came with Jargar Classic Medium strings. I had a cheap crappy chinese electric cello since before and took the D string from it and it got better volume but too much of the sharp screetchy sound like the A string. Any ideas on what to do? Is it just strings or some other issue?

My daughter bought a cello that has Helicore G and C, and looks like Kaplan A and D. When it was first bought the D string was beautiful, but the neck broke (from a fall on ice - it has been repaired) and now the A and D sound too bright, and the sound post has been repositioned a few times to try and sound better, but just isn't helping. She and I both like the Jargar Superior (we both like the mellow, deeper, round sounds) in your video and wonder if she should try that set, or if she could try just the Jargar A and D with the Helicore G and C? What are you thoughts? Thanks so much for making this very helpful video.

@rbodinnar 5 жыл бұрын
Often, if the neck of a cello is angled lower than it should be, then the A and D will sound brighter and thinner than otherwise. It sounds like the angle of the neck is lower than it was before the repair... you can have it re-angled, but its an expensive operation. Stringwise... I think a Jargar superior set would be good, or replace the A and D with Larsen. The standard Jargar are a bit brighter on the A than they used to be. -Rich

Using decent headphones, there were obvious differences between strings that I'm sure I would hear. I got the impression that he was hearing more than I was though. Either because it's different being the player (because it sounds different, you feel the vibrations, and you're aware of the different possibilities for shaping the sound), or because the microphone didn't pick everything up.

I tried Spirocore C and Gon my modern cello and hated them!!! Really harsh - took graininess to a new level. Like the cello has a really bad sore throat. The Evah Pirazzi Gold work well for me on the C&G - rich and super-responsive. I don’t like the Evah Gold on the A, though - thin, tinny and prone to awful squaking. Still looking for a good A. Larsen was PL, but not great. wondering about the Perpetual. Am getting a bit tired of spending a bundle to try strings that don’t turn out (I had to get rid of the Spirocore quickly as they were like fingernails on a chalk board!)

How much time did you experiment with Spirocores? At first they are horrible, mainly the G, but one month later they are so much better and you start to understand why is used so much by soloist, maybe it wont work well on very bright cellos. My Spirocores have a little more than 3 months now and they are awesome, sounds even better after my change of Bernadel rosin to Andrea Piacera rosin, full, round, warm and powerful. It was an act of faith to leave them one. I tried Magnarocore on my G but after a couple of weeks put it back my Spiro G. They match Larsen, Jargar (special forte A and special medium D) and Versum Solo top strings very well. My next g and c will probably be Versum Solo.

The problem with this review is that it's a short term review and therefore not really relevant. How strings sound when new and how they sound after sustained use are very different.

Larsen medium strings would be great for an overly bright cello.
