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.

Mellow tones

Pros: Warm mellow tone. Reliably stay in tune during playing even when temperatures fluctuate. Prefer sound to previous types of strings tried (many types!)

Cons: Nil

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

Fabulous strings. For me, worth the money.

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.

Cons: I can hear my mistakes! I have to practice more!

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

Very good strings

Pros: This set was recommended by my son's violin teacher. The strings sound warmer compared to Dominant strings on my son's violin. The strings are also very responsive.

Cons: Not sure what happened but the E string snapped after 3 days.

These are the strings for my violin

Pros: Excellent tone on my 19th century violin.

Cons: Took a few days to play in.

Other: Having stuck with Eudoxa for years on the recommendation of a teacher, I've been trying out different strings to see for myself what suits my violin. Once played in these make it sing and the tuning seems to be very stable.

Excllent

Pros: I have used this for several years now. It both fits my delicate, old Italian violin from around 1700, and my powerful replica of il Canone by Joseph Sitt from 1874, one of his last ones.

Cons: None

Faulty A strings, wear out fast, but great sound.

Pros: Beautiful sound. Strings settle quickly.

Cons: These wear out very fast. Also, I seem to have bought 2 faulty A strings in a row. Both have unravelled after just a few weeks. Very annoying as they are so expensive.
