Description

The market leader in professional grade orchestral strings. Set of 4 in medium tension. Choice of steel or gold plated E. Intense and brilliant sound with the widest possible dynamic range. These strings are best suited to advanced student and professional players and work best on high quality instruments.

Available in three tensions, Evah Pirazzi strings have a core made from a modern synthetic multifilament fibre which contributes to a very intensive and powerful sound. Ideally suited to orchestral and solo playing.

The strings have outstanding playability and exceptional response at any of the dynamic levels, a complex sound, rich with overtones based on a brilliant core sound and enormous projection.

Expressive, with great nuances and enormous dynamic range combined with outstanding tuning stability. These strings are absolutely insensitive to variations in temperature and humidity and are also suitable for electric violins or violins equipped with piezo-pickups

E-Goldsteel option: This string is more brilliant and powerful sound than the Silvery Steel E-string. This string has a different sound profile from Oliv and Obligato Goldsteel E-strings.

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.

Good strings

Pros: Quick delivery Too early to say what the latest set of strings are like, but the identical strings I ordered some months ago and have now switched from "spare set" to "in use" are absolutely fine.

Cons: No negatives

Lovely tone quality. Bright "folky" sound.

Pros: Lovely tone quality. Not as harsh as my previous set but still cutting enough to give a bright "folky" sound.

Cons: Nothing

Good strings from a reliable source.

Pros: I got these for my daughter who is grade eight standard and needed some good strings for playing in a competition. She is really happy with them. Good prompt service and they came well packaged.

Cons: If they are not what you want you do have to pay to return them - there seems to be no return and exchange option. I had a moment where I thought I had ordered the wrong type of string end for the E, and would not have been able to do a simple exchange with a ball end for a loop end. I would have to have paid to return one string and then paid to order the replacement.

Very pleased with these strings

Pros: Have been using Evah Pirazzi for about two years now and have been very pleased with them, good strong sound and they keep their tuning very well compared with Pirastro Olive for example although they are not as warm as the Olive.

Cons: No problems to date.
