Pirastro Violin Passione Solo Medium Gauge String Set 4/4 E-Silvery Steel, A-Aluminium, D- and G-Silver

Specifications: Size: 4/4 Instrument: Violin Set: E-Silvery steel, A-aluminium, D- and G- silver Packaging: Envelope Tailpiece options: All strings with a ball-end Gauge: Medium gauge (*strings are slightly thicker than medium gauge of Passione strings) Silvery Steel E-string gauge: Medium (0.26mm) Features: The sheep gut core of the Passione Solo strings is manufactured, wound and polished in the traditional way, by hand. Soloistic tone with strong power and brilliance Extended range of dynamics and tone colours Very powerful and brilliant sound with great projection Significantly reduced playing-in time: Passione strings are immediately playable as opposed to traditional gut strings. Very easy response Significantly increased tuning stability vs. traditional gut core strings Special Features: The length of coloured silk at the peg end of the Passione Solo G-string is different than the length of the A- and D- strings. This has been done intentionally and is part of the construction of the G-string. The special length of the G-string’s colour winding at the peg end prevents the string from breaking in the peg box. At the latest after two to three days the stretching process will be finalized. As a result the silk winding will no longer reach over the nut. We have made numerous tests with this special G on various violins all differing in size and the string has always fitted. On some violins it takes longer, with other violins the string even fits from the beginning.
