Mirca Strings & Ebony Cleaner

MIRCA STRINGS & EBONY CLEANER  has been formulated mainly with vegetable and mineral components that deeply clean the strings and the fingerboard, leaving a thin protective and softening film that contributes to extending the life of the strings.

It is made up of a network of lamellar liquid crystals in conjunction with mineral micro particles, biodegradable surfactants and vegetable oils that facilitate the release of active substances on the strings and fingerboard, prolonging their conservation, shine and hydration.

MIRCA helps limit the appearance of microorganisms that reduce the life of the strings and the degradation of the ebony of the fingerboard through deep cleaning, intense hydration and creating a persistent, long-lasting protective film.

MIRCA STRINGS & EBONY CLEANER has been developed for application on ebony fingerboards and strings made of different metals (silver, aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, tungsten, chrome, bronze, etc). It offers optimal cleaning by removing traces of grease, oil residues, rosin, bacteria and dirt in general.

It is packaged in an acrylic airless container to prolong shelf life and is presented in 40ml or 1.35 fl.oz containers.

MIRCA STRINGS & EBONY CLEANER is antioxidant, antibacterial, antimicrobial and antifungal. Its application incorporates in the strings and the fingerboard an excellent tactile recovery that facilitates the playing of the instrument making, if it is the case, the sweat of the hand becomes less assimilable by the ebony and uncomfortable.

    I am very impressed with the possibilities offered by every endpin model!

    I am particularly fond of the Artica 600 Titanium, which I installed in my modern 2001 Alberto Giordano violoncello. The A-string is now much softer and uniform as to the whole set, which makes me so happy!

    Besides, the overall sound production of the instrument is smoother, and the noise in sound production has decreased. Also, the cello tone has improved in quality as well as loudness.

    The instrument is now more harmonious and sounds better in practice.

    Thank you very much for your valuable work.

    Dear José María, the products of FASTER Sound Systems are amazing. The output delivered by your endpins and stoppers goes beyond reality. They are fantastic.

    Never had I tried something similar, something that facilitated me to play freely, with no tensions, and with a significant increase in harmonics, loudness, and sound projection across the hall.

    Thank you very much for your splendid innovations.

    FASTER, what a great invention!

    The first thing I noticed is how much faster the instrument’s sound opens. And above all, the ease in the response!

    Bravo, maestro!

    Principal cellist - Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester. Berlin, Germany

    All beautifully crafted models of the FASTER Artica cello endpin sound fabulous. They are just awesome!

    All of them sound undoubtedly different, but, if they have one thing in common, and I think they do, is that they make the sound more clean and round, bright and projective.

  • Giovanni Radivo

    Concertmaster - Orquestre National de Lyon. France

    I have installed the FASTER Silver in my Vuillaume violin. The sound is simply amazing, very free, with plenty of harmonics, and incredible tone quality.

  • Massimo Quarta

    Violin soloist & conductor - Italy

    I have extensively tried the FASTER Silver in my G. A. Rocca violin with different pieces of music, and various acoustics, and I feel happy to let you know that it did improve the sound of my violin!

    Not only is it more powerful, but also more rounded, and it did improve a lot the clarity of the sound.

    Besides, the possibility of closing the hole with the small plastic cap gives me the option to opting for a more compact sound if needed without losing all the harmonics-related benefits that the silver button adds.

    Thank you very much. You did a fantastic job!

  • Glauco Bertagnin

    Violin soloist - Padova, Italy

    I am impressed with the result after installing the FASTER Titanium in my Stefano Scarampella violin. The change has surprised me because I did not think it would be so evident. I have to admit that in the beginning, I had my doubts as to the outcome. The sound production is now quicker, and the medium-low range has improved so much! Previously, my violin had a very powerful E-string, which made sound balance at stake. I tried various sound adjustments, but the result was never successful. Ever since I installed the FASTER Titanium, the violin’s sound production is better. It has gained harmonic richness, which has turned sound production smoother and sweeter.

    Thank you very much! Love,

    When someone shows you FASTER, a mix of surprise and skepticism over something so small and simple-looking overwhelms you. Once installed in the violin, you cannot go backward and do without it. Without hesitation, FASTER is the most ground-breaking invention, and also the one that has most contributed in terms of sound to string instruments in the last three hundred years.
