Complete set of 4 strings for violin. 

Discover the Larsen Il Cannone 'Medium' violin string set, the original synthetic-core strings inspired by Paganini’s legendary “Il Cannone” Guarneri del Gesù violin.

Crafted for players seeking balance and expression, this Medium tension set offers a noble, colorful, rich, and powerful sound with moderate tension that feels comfortable under the bow and fingers. The set features a unique carbon steel E-string (with removable ball end) for clarity and sweetness, a synthetic multi-filament A-string wound with precision-rolled aluminium for balanced response, and pure silver-wound D and G strings that deliver depth, complexity, and resonant power.

Violinists love the open, projecting tone with intricate harmonics, fast and easy response—especially in spiccato and rapid passages—and the way it unlocks the instrument’s hidden colors and volume without harshness. The rich lower register pairs beautifully with a brilliant edge, creating a versatile voice ideal for solo, chamber, and orchestral playing.

Whether you perform on stage or in the studio, the Il Cannone Medium set brings cannon-like projection softened by warmth and sophistication. Elevate your violin’s voice with this acclaimed, player-favorite string set.
