Thomastik Alphayue Cello 1/2, ST-AL400-SET12

Alphayue cello strings are Thomastik-Infeld's answer to the demand for strong-sounding yet affordable student strings for cello. They are aimed at learners who find plain full-steel strings too one-dimensional, but who don't yet have the budget for professional strings.

The synthetic multi-layer core delivers a warm, round tone with good carrying power. Chrome and silver windings ensure clear response and a stable transition between strings. The strings settle in quickly and stay reliably in tune over long practice sessions.

Available in all common sizes from 4/4 to 1/8. This means Alphayue covers a young cellist's entire growth phase and makes the switch between sizes tonally consistent.

• Student cello strings with a warm synthetic core and clean response, available down to 1/8.
