Pros: It's warm sound, it complements the aged softness that my violin generates much more than any other string I have tried. It is long lasting and far better than any other string out there.
Cons: I preferred it when they used to be sold to be stored in tubes. They are more expensive than dominants

Pirastro Obligato A
Pros: Have always liked this string on my violin but ...
Cons: The quality of this string has gone downhill. I have thrown away 2 new A strings purchased from the Stringzone in July because of unravelling/separating over the bridge. Spotted by my luthier who told me that he has noticed problems recently with Pirastro strings. Disappointing and costly.
