Description

Evah Pirazzi Gold strings have a synthetic multifilament fibre core. They produce a brilliant, golden tone with a full-bodied and big sound from the very bottom to the top of the register.

The great dynamic range of these strings allows skilled players to explore both the finest nuances of quiet passages and create powerful sonorities when playing close to the finger-board or using a strong bow arm.

Very short break-in time, even shorter than Evah Pirazzi and Obligato, combined with a very high level of tonal stability in all climatic conditions

Gold G-string: This G-string is wound with a pure gold wire. It offers a round and full tone. Silver G-string: very dynamic sound which emphasises a more brilliant tone

NEW Stainless Steel E-string: It has an excellent response and generates a refined and smooth sound right to the very top of the register.

P4193-21 Various covers on multi strand synthetic core. Ball or loop end E. Ball end A, D & G. All strings are medium tension and full size.

Using a loop end E? The use of a protector to prevent the tuner hook breaking the string is essential with loop end E strings. We cannot accept claims for strings broken by the adjuster hook. Click here to purchase this item.

A great set of strings.

Pros: A most impressive set of strings - the lower end in particular is a stunner. I haven't tried the Gold G yet, but the standard silver G is sonorous, deep and full of complex overtones. Straight out of the box it sounds great. Unfortunately the tone doesn't last forever, but these are still the best set of strings I have used thus far (currently one day into a set Peter Infeld with Plat E - too early to make comparisons but suffice to say the PIs don't have the same out-of-the-box wow factor). The normal stainless steel E is fine - sweet sounding yet has soom oomph too. More importantly it works in harmony with the rest of the set on my 1820s English violin without standing out - a problem often found with more powerful gold and platinum-plated Es. Worth experimenting with other Es though.

Expensive, but worth the extra money

Pros: These are the best strings I've tried. Compared to the EP originals their tone is a little softer and less strident, and most importantly, they don't seem to produce the same degree of overtones (which I found distracting at times with the originals.) I particularly like the E and A strings. The gold G fits in nicely, so I probably won't bother to try the silver version.

Cons: Expensive

Pros: First time I've tried these strings and its like playing a different instrument! Very resonant. Transformed upper register on e string. I will buy again for sure.

Vibrant strings

Pros: Great service-very fast I was looking for strings which provided greater volume for playing in jam sessions. These seem pretty good . No issues with thickness of string in individual tuners.

Cons: The D string does seem more vibrant than the others but that may settle as it’s early days.vibrant
