Pros: A refined warm tone and so comfortable under the fingers.
Cons: With gut G, D and A, it does not allow the guts to resonate to their fullest extent. Replacing the Gold Label E after 2 weeks with a Jarger Forte E, it sounded like a totally different violin. Perhaps synthetic cored strings go better with the Pirastro E.

Works well with Dominant. Reliable.

Pros: I use this E string with dominant G, D and A. It has a good projection, nice ring and very rarely whistles. Never broke any of those either and always lasted as long as my complementary dominant.
Cons: None I can think of.
Other: Great service from Stringzone as usual. Good packaging and fast service.

Good as ever

Pros: A lovely, lyrical sound, avoiding the harshness of some E strings
Cons: Is there new labelling? I have had Pirastro Gold before. I know you also do a 'real' gold string but thought they were under the same lable. Seperating them has confused me a bit. No complaints about the string itself though

Pros: Fuller sound matching dominant ADG, no more abrupt timbre change from A to E.
Cons: Not at the moment
Other: A little bit too powerful for home practising, my neighbours may not like it
