Take your sound from neutral to nuanced with Kaplan Amo viola strings. Kaplan Amo offers bold, warm tone, with a flexible response that’s welcoming to most players. Coupled with their quick break-in period and enhanced projection, Kaplan Amo strings provide a professional level of performance, which allows violists to easily convey their instrument’s rich tonal palette. Kaplan strings are available in a range of sizes to suit most advancing players.

Kaplan Viola strings offer professional-level players a full range of options designed to meet their exacting needs: two synthetic core sets, Kaplan Amo and Kaplan Vivo, and our existing stranded-steel core set, renamed Kaplan Forza. Kaplan Amo provides warmth, richness, and flexibility for brighter instruments, while Kaplan Vivo delivers brilliance, clarity, and a robust feel for darker instruments. Both sets settle quickly, exhibiting a rich tonal color palette and superb bow response. Kaplan Forza, the stranded-steel core set, provides an even higher level of clarity and tonal focus, and quicker bow response and settling time.
