Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Gold G-SI BE

This is an excellent set of string. I've bought it several times already.

Pricey, but exceptionally good

Tone is a subjective thing, so this is just my opinion. I use these strings on all my violins - they are simply tremendous. I'm not sure about the gold G string though - I have also used the cheaper silver alternative, and to be honest I can't tell the difference.

Beautiful sounding strings

The strings arrived sooner than scheduled. They are high quality as expected and have a beautiful tone. A nice upgrade for anyone looking for something a little more special. The E string has an exceptional tone quality higher up the range. The only minus was that at the ball end of the string, the wrapping was slightly thicker on the A string and I did struggle getting it to fit correctly into my tail piece hole (without fine tuner). I'm not sure if that is normal for this brand, or just a one off as the others fit fine.

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.

Awesome Hi-End strings.

As Pirastro's Evah Pirazzi is almost like a "industry standard" where I live for high-price strings, this is really nice upgrade. With this price tag there is no surprise that these strings plays and sounds awesome. Pirazzi Gold offers all good things that Pirazzi's gives and much more - a lot more of nice overtone action, nice long sustain, no muddiness, brilliant and full bodied tone, instant response and easy playability. Tuning stability is almost instant as you put them on but you have to break them in for about 3 days. These strings are a bit higher tension still being mediums.

As for G-Gold vs G-Silver there is no better or worse. Player should choose a tonal preference according to his own style - G-silver gives more brilliant tone but G-gold produces round and full tone. For example, for mine violin witch has nice, beautiful and very powerful bottom end, I choose G-silver set, that gives me nice balanced sound.
