Pirastro Oliv G Double Bass 4/4-3/4
Based on 3 reviews
Using this G string with Evah Pirazzi on the other strings (D, A, and E) and it complements them perfectly. The sound (both pizz and arco) is full and warm and not as punchy as the Evah Pirazzi G string. Three drawbacks that I can think of: 1. A bit on the thick side, approximately the size of my D string. However, not an issue for me as my nut was wide enough. 2. Takes a while to settle in tune. Took me about a month to stay in tune. Not a biggie though. 3. A bit pricey, but I guess you get what you pay for.

There is a reason why these chords are so renowned . Indeed, the sound and quality are superior. I have tried many types of strings. I always end up choosing the gut strings , and these undoubtedly, have been a great choice. Everything from the feeling to the volume ; they demonstrate the "plus" they have. Very happy

‘G string ‘compare to anima velvet G or olive g. It is still much thinner than them. Almost Like Spirocore medium string G. Surprisingly a quick reaction .a great sound with bow .a nice sustain . You should try it. Better than evapirazzi for me
Pirastro Perpetual Bass G 3/4
Based on 1 reviews
I use this string for arco playing, as part of the whole set, lately. It's looser, in a gut way, & in a gut-like direction, which I love than traditional arco steel we all know. As a top G string it speaks quickly, is articulate, & cuts through in the orchestra. Solo playing is very lyrical & harmonics ring on as you take a coffee break. As a con, & lover of gut, I'd love to see a slightly thicker version, whilst keeping the same tension. I'm looking forward to see how it ages & settles in. Bottom line: these would be a great audition string.

Everyone knows Spiros, so my review is somehow pointless. Nevertheless, I'll state the obvious: great sustain, brilliant sound, even tension. Not very pleasant to bow until they set properly, but even then there are better options for bow on the market. Anyway I'll never stress this enough: it always depends on the bass and on the player.
