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.

Sweet and pure.

Pros: I have previously mainly used Dominant and I find the Evah Pirazzi strings give a clearer, almost ringning, tone. They are sweet and pure rather than mellow, but not too thin. During the short time I have used them I like them. The E string stopped loosing tension very quickly, the G has not been too bad, the A and D still loosing a very little, but overal quite acceptable.

Cons: None

Professional

Not for everyone.

Pros: They are quite loud

Cons: Didn't suit my violin at all or my type of music- ( Folk Rock/IrishTrad/Americana) very harsh when amplified and slow to respond. Maybe they would improve if played in for a long time but I had gigs to do wo went back to Helicore .

Keen Amateur

Evah Pirazzi - noticeably better than the average.

Pros: After trying other makes of string on a fairly good (but not professional standard) fiddle, these brought out a fuller and more even tone from the instrument for my playing (amateur folk fiddler). Somewhat more expensive than the usual brand, but worth the extra cost.

Cons: None
