We are excited to introduce you to a novelty within the Evah Pirazzi Gold string line, which turns 10 years old this year! We have created an Evah Pirazzi Gold steel core viola set. This innovative new alternative set offers a tremendously brilliant direct sound with absolutely no metallic harshness. The complete steel string set contains A-steel/chrome steel, D-rope core/chrome steel, G-rope core/chrome steel and C-rope core/tungsten. The special processing of the materials allows these steel strings to provide the player with a large and soloistic volume of sound.

The A- and D-strings are made with a solid steel core which is wound with chrome steel and the G- and C-strings have a rope steel core which is wound with tungsten. This result in a set that provides a very deep and warm tone, combined with a robust sound volume and a balanced sound spectrum.
The cello Flexocor Deluxe are characterized by the seamless string to string transitions, the direct and effortless response, particularly on the lower strings, the direct and effortless response and the easy playability.

Our new Platinum-E provides the violinist with an immense abundance of sound colors, an overtone-rich radiance to its large warm core tone, and a wide sound projection.
It exerts a "suggestive force" and "Just listen! This E is undoubtedly the new benchmark!"
The transitions from the A to the E are designed to be effortless without any breaks. This coupled with the perfect response of our Platinum-E helps create an experience of new freedom in the sound design.
The surface of the platinum coating provides the pleasant feeling of stability under the fingers of the left hand, which greatly benefits changes in position and vibrato.
It blends harmoniously with all PIRASTRO violin strings, from Obligato to Evah Pirazzi and Passione to Evah Pirazzi Gold.

Additionally to our viola EVAH PIRAZZI GOLD set we developed a C string made of a high-precision steel rope cable which is wound with a fine tungsten wire. Very powerful and dark sound color with a lot of depth and brilliance. This new C string reacts to the smallest bow strokes and each bow stroke is instantly converted into a very harmonious sound image.
The new steel rope core C of course fits well with the existing EVAH PIRAZZI GOLD strings, but also beautifully harmonizes with other PIRASTRO viola strings.
