What is Super-Sensitive Musical String?
For nearly four decades, Super-Sensitive Musical String has been a dedicated manufacturer of strings for the Violin Octet family of instruments. The company's journey began in the late 1960s when Carleen Hutchins and Super-Sensitive President John Cavanaugh collaborated to create strings that would complete the Octet line. Their objective was to develop an accessible string that authentically replicated the pure, traditional sound of gut core strings. To achieve this, Perlon, a low-tension synthetic imitation of gut, was chosen for its stable and weather-resistant properties, making it an optimal choice for the Octet series. Today, Super-Sensitive continues to offer a comprehensive range of Violin Octet strings that provide gut-like qualities and exceptional tonal balance across the entire instrument family.
