Dominant series viola strings are one of the most widely used synthetic strings, Thomastik Dominant
strings have a highly flexible, multi-strand nylon core that is comparable in sound and feel to natural gut. They cater to
artists who feel uncomfortable with steel strings. The resounding success of the Dominant string owes a lot to its similarity
in tone and response to gut strings, without gut's inherent drawbacks.

is full and mellow, yet rich in overtones. Its radiance, its ability to project sound without being metallic, comes to the
fore both in arco and pizzicato. Other advantages are Dominant's effortless response to intricate fingering and its tuning
stability even under extreme atmospheric conditions. But Dominant's beauty of tone is not as long lasting as that of a steel
string, a price the discerning musician will be prepared to pay for this quality of sound. Dominant strings should be changed
at appropriate intervals to ensure continuity of tone color.
