■ The pioneering brand of handmade strings, renowned for its legendary high quality, has been reborn.
■ Richard Cocco Senior strings combine a long history and wealth of experience, countless trial and error, brilliant ideas gained from collaborations with great musicians, and the reliability and peace of mind of craftsmen with solid manufacturing skills. These strings are truly unique and of exceptional quality.
(Richard Cocco Senior strings are made in Italy, not America, and are made by hand over a long period of time.)
■Major string manufacturers mechanize much of their manufacturing process, and the resulting products truly deserve to be called ""finished products."" However, R. Cocco Senior strings use only traditional string-making machines and high-quality materials, and remain stubbornly committed to the hand-wound method by artisans.
■Compared to the instrument itself, the quality and character of strings tend to be overlooked, and as a result, it is not uncommon for safe strings to be used. However, there is something special about strings that are carefully made by hand, with the utmost care and attention paid to each one, and they bring out the best in the instrument even more.
