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
Choice of G string windings. 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
4 x variations of the set, loop or ball E , and then gold or silver G.
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.
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.

Good for a bright fiddle but expensive
Pros: Nicely balanced set with good tone, a little more mellow than standard evah
Cons: Price - regular Evahs better value Projection in large room not as good as standard evahs
Other: For my best fiddle I gave these a try after using "green " Evahs in low tension. for a long time. I found them heavier to play and although they sounded nice they didn't give the volume or projection. I'm used to. Pt the greens back on after 2 weeks.

love the strings and tone
Pros: As a traditional fiddle player i love the responsiveness, tone and ease of playing across the whole range of the four strings.
Cons: Takes a bit of time to get used to the pressure you need to get a clear tone on the e string but well worth the effort.
Other: Third set I've bought ,so very happy with them.

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.
