I have been playing violin for 12 years and have always used Zyex strings. However, my friend told me to try these and I am so glad I did! They sound beautiful and get the best quality tone I have ever heard. The sound is warm and beautiful and I love these strings, I will never use anything else.

This review is from: Pirastro Evah Pirazzi 4/4 Violin String Set - Medium Gauge - Steel Loop-End E

I recently switched from Obligatos to Evah Pirazzis. Though I may still be in the "everything sounds great and bright" phase, I have been pleasantly surprised by the sound quality and brightness, compared to the Obligatos. I did not have much trouble with the strings stretching at the very beginning, but that was the case with the Obligatos. I cannot attest to the longevity of the strings, but that is completely dependent on how much one practices!

This review is from: Pirastro Evah Pirazzi 4/4 Violin String Set - Medium Gauge - Steel Loop-End E

I've been playing violin and viola for going on 9 years now, and previously, I'd been using D'Addario Helicores pretty exclusively on everything. I picked up a refurbished 1940s German violin at a Celtic Festival a couple of years ago, and when I had to start playing it for a band, it needed more sound. I asked a friend of mine for a recommendation, and she mentioned these strings.

Once I put them on, it was like I was holding an entirely new instrument. They have a very clear, bright, and open sound. I haven't really done a ton of experimenting with E-strings, but the E's do seem to have a good bit of squeak to them (I'm also using a very lightweight bow), which can be remedied with the liberal application of rosin.

Very happy with them - I use them for all of my violins, and once I get the cash to do it, plan on putting them on my violas as well. I highly recommend using these if you're going to be playing in an environment with no sound equipment or if you're playing outside, as their sound carries very well.
