Evah Pirazzi Cello Strings

Features

  
  • The A- and D-strings have a core made from a single filament of high-tensile steel and are wound with chrome steel. The G- and C-strings have a rope core wound with tungsten.
  • The A- and D-strings offer great brilliance combined with a warm core sound. The transition from the D- to the G-string is smooth, whereas the G-string offers even more depth and a greater sound volume. The C-string has a powerful open sound, vibrates freely and offers enormous possibilities.
  • The whole set offers great brilliance based on a warm core sound.
  • These strings offer excellent responsiveness and control ability across the whole dynamic range,  from pianissimo to fortissimo.
  • The different design of the three gauges results in distinctive sound differences:
    gauge soft - warmer sounding set than medium gauge
    gauge strong - considerable volume and brighter sound than medium gauge
  • exceptional tuning stability and immediate playability
  • suitable also for electric or electrically-amplified cellos

Gauges

Sizes
  • soft:
    warmer sounding strings than medium gauge
  • medium:
    brilliant sound based on a warm core sound
  • strong:
    considerable volume and brighter sound than medium gauge
  • Evah Pirazzi strings are available in 4/4 and 3/4–1/2 size.
  • The string set for the 3/4–1/2 instruments has been constructed on the same basis and from the same materials as the Evah Pirazzi 4/4 strings. As a result of their smaller diameter, they are light and pleasing to play. They have a wonderful set harmony, are long-lasting, and are offered at an attractive price.
  • The string set for the 1/4 – 1/8 instruments is available on special request. Please contact us.
