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.
Below Pirastro explain the difference between the 3 Evah Pirazzi Offerings
Evah Pirazzi (2000): This set of strings is characterized by an overtone-rich, rather bright sound and a relatively strong background noise, which ensures carrying capacity, power and projection.
Evah Pirazzi Gold (2012): In contrast, these strings are designed to emphasize the warm, round and somewhat darker sound spectrum.
Evah Pirazzi Neo (2025): In this new development, the background noise of the original Evah Pirazzi is reduced while maintaining the strings’ full carrying capacity and power. Evah Pirazzi Neo is designed to combine effortless note and string transitions with easy response, tonal clarity and far-reaching projection.
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.

Beautiful loud strings
Pros: They really sing out - they love to be played loudly and hard and respond really well when I'm giving it some welly.
Cons: I haven't quite got used to how they work when playing more softly yet. I feel like I'm having to work quite hard at getting a sound that I'm happy with.

Exceptionally good strings for the price.
Pros: Their clear, resonant tone which is equally pleasing in low or high registers.
Cons: Nothing.
Other: I play in orchestras, string quartets, restaurant ensembles and folk bands. Pirazzi string fit the bill for all of these musical genres.

Top quality, very powerful string.
Pros: I've been playing Evahs for the last three years now and all I can say is that these strings are wonderful! When new and fresh they have enormous volume and throughout their life produce a bold and strong sound... Perfect for how I use them (amplified, in a band as well as symphony orchestras). They complement my young and lively instrument well though I have heard them sound full and expressive on other more delicate instruments as well.
Cons: They lose their top level of volume as they settle in.

Good strings
Pros: They have a very brilliant sound and the set is evenly matched across my instrumnet. The great advantage compared with other synthetic core strings is they don't give that hard edge to the sound, Also they stay in tune so well.
Cons: Sometimes a new string seems to go rather dull, compared with its initial bright sound, after a few days use
Professional
