The Il Cannone Medium E string is 0.26 mm, and the Il Cannone Soloist E string is 0.27 mm, so this new 0.28 E string should be considered a heavy-tension E string.

The new 0.28 E string offers a fine yet powerful and brilliant sound and extremely fast response in both low and high dynamics and is already the preferred E string for a number of Larsen Artists.
