Pro-Arte synthetic core violin strings have a warm, mellow tone. They are less sensitive to humidity and temperature changes, and break in quickly. Pro-Arte strings are designed at a lower tension in order to maximize bow response, tonal blend and playability. A good choice if a warmer, darker tone than steel strings is desired. Scaled to fit 4/4 size violin with a playing length of 13 inches (328mm), light tension strings allow for easier bow response. Pro-Arte light tension violin strings are available as a single strings only.

Planet Waves Microfiber Polish Cloth
The Planet Waves Micro-Fiber polishing cloth acts like a magnet for dust, dirt, and oils, and lasts considerably longer than ordinary cloths. Woven from microscopic fibers, the Planet Waves Micro-Fiber Cloth is 10 times finer than silk, up to 30 times finer than cotton, and 100 times finer than a human hair. The fibers are woven into masses of tiny "hooks & loops" which cut through stains, attracting and absorbing dirt, smudges, and micro particles that ordinary cloths cannot reach or remove.
Best of all, the Micro-Fiber polishing cloth needs only minimal polish or no polish at all!
