Amber

After introducing our new visual identity with The Beast, AMBER is the first of our existing product lines to step into a new era*.

• A newly developed silver D string — designed to eliminate corrosion issues while keeping the signature AMBER warmth and clarity.
• Improved durability across the entire set.
• New winding technologies that allow us to achieve the same texture and sizzle without aluminium.

* The new packaging will initially apply to AMBER viola Medium strings. As a transitional measure, AMBER viola Long strings will continue to be shipped in the original packaging until the updated version becomes available.

The Amber set has been developed with the aim of achieving the sound quality of the best gut strings without any tuning instabilities. The set features W-Core®, a completely new core material developed by our Research & Development team.

Featuring two A string options: metal and synthetic. The metal core A string benefits from our helix design which gives the metal core exceptional elasticity and results in a new level of sound quality. The synthetic core A string and the rest of the set uses our new W-Core® material.

Viola strings are available in two scales.

Medium Vibrating Length 14“ – 15“  (36 – 38 cm)

Long Vibrating Length 15“ – 15.75“  (38 – 40 cm)

Please note that we don‘t state body size but vibrating string length. For instruments with exactly 38 cm vibrating  length we advise choosing our medium size viola strings.

To avoid damaging strings it is essential that Warchal viola string sizes are chosen according to the vibrating string length of your instrument and not its body length. The vibrating string length is the distance between the bridge and the nut. We find that the majority of violas have a Medium vibrating string length.
