Pirastro Gold Violin String Set - Loop End E String - 4/4 size - Medium Gauge

Pirastro Gold a Trusted String Set

The quality of the strings makes all the difference in ease of playing and the generation of a full sound from my violin. I have played on the Pirastro Gold strings for over 40-years in orchestras and solo situations.

Lovely sweet, resonant sound

Very much enjoying these strings, even on a more “mellow” instrument. They sound at least as good as Dominants, but more overtones. They sound more ring-y than some of the “louder” and more pricey strings on the market. A-string did start to unravel first week, but Shar was really good about instantly shipping a new replacement string when I emailed them and sent a picture. I’ll probably try Passione next, just to see what the difference in volume and tone color is, but I’m quite pleased 2 weeks in.
