Warchal Brilliant Vintage violin strings features

[pullquote align=”right”]

Brilliant can have different meanings – exceptionally clever or talented on one hand, and bright or shiny on the other hand.

Warchal Brilliant Vintage violin strings are not simply bright sounding like their name might suggest. In fact, these strings are well balanced between warmth, clarity, and harmonic richness. As for the Vintage version that we have here, it is optimised for older instruments. Thanks to a softer tension than the standard version, they free themselves more on violins already unrestrained by years of vibration.

According to Warchal policy, the set of strings is only available in one tension – thus, it will perfectly fit most violins. Yet, it is possible to choose between a ball end or a loop end.

My review on Warchal Brilliant Vintage violin strings

Warchal Brilliant strings are a wise choice whatever your instrument. Slight differences draws a distinction between the two versions, although you need the Vintage strings if you play on an old violin. Defining ‘old’ isn’t that simple, but if we look at the definition of ‘vintage’, it can only be something less than 20 years old. Thus, you can determine whether you violin is ready to be stringed with these.

At first sight, the strings may seem thicker, but they remain comfortable still. They are characterised by a clever mix of softness and powerful, with well-defined sound colours. In the end, we have high-quality strings here.

The stability and lifespan are also quite incredible. However, they still need a few days to develop their full potential.

Finally, one last tip – if you’d like to experiment with strings mix, try to use the Amber E-string and the Russian Style A-string with the Warchal Brilliant Vintage set of strings.

• Great perfomances, even better on older instruments
• Very stable and solid
