Velvet Strings constructed around a core of natural fibers, produce a sound (and feel to the player) which cannot be distinguished from pure gut strings. Windings, whether copper or synthetic material, reinforce the string's warmth and richness of tone. Each type of string offers unique characteristics, providing an attractive solution for various playing applications.

Velvet Blue Bass Strings

Velvet Blue Replaces the Comaps 360 string. It is Velvet's newest string. Distinctive qualities include extremely rapid response and balance. The wire wound strings are perfect for all modern playing techniques. When they are used in conjuction with electro-acoustic transducers, the amplified sound remains astonishingly natural.

Velvet Garbo Bass Strings

Garbo is the string for serious pizzicato playing. The solid core highlights the particular frequencies which enable the acoustic instrument to hold its own in all environments. The sound is especially distinctive for the lower-middle frequency range, offering rich harmonics that are clear and assertive with the familiar "kick" as the note begins. The Garbo strings can produce fullness of tone and penetration which is simply unbeatable.
