Castle Violin String Set - 1/2 Size
The Castle Violin String Set in a 1/2 Size is a student to intermediate-level set designed specifically for  1/2 size instruments, typically used by younger or smaller players. Made in Korea and feature a superior flat winding of aluminium and sterling silver.

Quality String Set
Made in Korea by Samhyun, a manufacturer known for producing budget-friendly yet quality string sets for orchestral instruments. The winding materials are superior flats, proving a smoother, more refined surface finish achieved by using flat wire rather than round wire. This helps reduce finger noise and gives the strings a more polished tone. The Aluminium is typically used for the A and D strings, providing a bright, clear tone. The Sterling Silver (used on G or lower strings) offers warmth and richness, giving more depth and tonal complexity. The strings are wound over a flexible synthetic or steel core (often a stranded steel core), balancing durability, playability, and tone stability. This core type gives decent longevity and tuning stability—important for student players who may not tune their instruments as often or as accurately.
