Powerful G string
I can't speak for the whole set, because i used other brands for the A, D, and E, but the silver G string had a crisp bite to it and was really colorful. I've had it on for several months now, and while it's not as impressive as it was when I first put it on, it still sounds pretty good. My instrument has a good lower register though anyways.
Very good strings!
When I bought my set of Evah Pirazzi Gold's I had high expectations since they were more expensive than the original Evah's I used before. When I put them on my violin it took a few days for them to break in and warm up. When they did I fell in love with this set. The brightness and projection of the strings is top notch, and very hard to rival. I used the set with the gold wound G string and it did give a rounded warm tone that I did like very much, but didn't love. I look for a darker more mellow sound on my lower register. The E string was smooth as silk and never would squeak when I played music with tricky string crossing. As for the two middle strings, they sounded much the same as the original Evah Pirazzi's and weren't anything too special. They were very warm as well and would sing well on my violin. Overall I was fairly impressed with these strings and the only reason they didn't get a five star is, because everyone's instrument is different and I believe there is no one perfect set of strings. Are they worth trying and the extra money? Of course. As I mentioned everyone's instrument is different and for some these strings can be the Holy Grail, or they can be a stepping stone in finding which set of strings is best for you.
love the set .
I use set with gold G string . On my violin they sound better than regular Evah Pirazzi . But the best part of the deal is the A string . From regular set it would wear out in two months and from Gold set after almost 9 months of active playing it is still fine . I can't yell anything about E string because I use thicker string , not medium .
Nice, but too expensive...
Projection is second to none, very lively, but...to me, the e string is very harsh and biting. I found the gold g string to have a somewhat heavier, denser sound than a typical silver g. If you want to try them, get the silver g instead, and save a couple of bucks in the process. Had them on for about three weeks. Holding up nicely. Took about a week to settle in, during which time the tone mellowed out a bit. Might be the perfect string for someone who can tame that e-string and wants that much projection for solo work. Overall, I think these strings are overpriced. At that price I want to be be floored.
