Jargar's Eccentric set is the darker, fuller-bodied side of Jargar — and it's available as a 14-day home trial for $99 at SoundBox Strings, with the fee deducted if you keep the set. Single strings are also available to trial (A $25, D $30, G $35, C $40).
Philo's take (after four months on his 2005 Grubaugh & Seifert cello, in orchestral rehearsals and solo practice): "The first thing that hits you is the overall character: dark and chocolatey on my instrument... In hands-on terms, the set feels like an elevated Jargar Evoke," with "a noticeably fuller core and more power on tap." "The lower strings are the clear stars of the set... They are dark and growly in the best way, speaking instantly at the start of the stroke with real depth underneath." His pairing: he runs the Eccentric G and C with a Larsen Magnacore Arioso D — an easy mix to build here, since every string is available as a single-string trial. Who it's for, in his words: "This set makes a lot of sense if you have an instrument that leans overly bright, hollow, or aggressive in the upper mids, and you want to anchor it with serious low-end presence without losing quick articulation."
Fast, edgy, with a full tonal core. That’s what these strings are. The new Jargar eccentric set will provide you a warm core with fast articulation. Its tone is incredibly rich in colour with a wide dynamic range and exceptional modulation. Your artistic intention will transform easily. Its crispy and edgy character will lead into a focused response. Embrace the power of eccentric!
