Sound and character
This wound overtone string provides the shimmering, floating overtone layer of the feeltone MO-28C-XL monochord. Tuned to C, the overtones weave a delicate sparkling fabric above the fundamental, bringing a soft, ethereal quality to the soundscape during a sound massage. The brass winding adds gentle warmth to this higher register, so the tone stays clear yet rounded and full.
How to use
An original Feeltone replacement string designed for the overtone side of the MO-28C-XL monochord. Replace it when the tone has lost its brilliance and clarity or when the string shows visible wear or damage. Follow the official Feeltone string-change guide for correct installation.
Why this product
A genuine Feeltone part, precisely matched to the scale length and intended overtone tuning of your instrument. Using the original string ensures that the monochord sounds with the character the workshop designed and stays tuning-stable over time. Non-original strings can alter the delicate overtone balance.
Care tips
- Returns are only possible with the seal intact, so only unpack when you are ready to fit the string.
- Allow several days of settling time after fitting a new string.
- The bare ends are sharp; unwind the coil carefully to avoid injury.
- Always use the original factory string to preserve the instrument's overtone character.
