Evah Pirazzi Gold G-SI BE : Amazing strings! Not for beginners, or...?

I'm coming at this as a beginner (a year and a half) with a Yamaha V5, so I'm probably way outside the target market for these strings - but I still greatly appreciate them. The richness of the tone, and extended range of expression, feels like upgrading to a significantly better instrument!

The downside? Well, they're rather expensive obviously, and from a beginner perspective, they're a bit harder to play than more "ordinary" strings. However, if you have a good ear and a bit of patience, that's just an opportunity to work on your bowing technique! These strings will punish you when you get it wrong, but reward you with an amazing tone when you get it right - especially if you've started developing a vibrato.
