This is a single-length (80", 200cm) beef gut (bovine serosa) string with a silver-plated copper wire wound onto the gut in tandem with a thin silk layer wound onto the core between the gut and wire. Because of the plating, the wire is left round so that you can feel the texture of the tops of the wire. The tone is quick and bright.
The string comes with a stopping end washer by default.

- Knot to stocking - 54.5" (138cm)
