About Evah Pirazzi NEO
The power of Evah, reengineered for clarity.
Evah Pirazzi NEO was developed in close collaboration with violinist Janine Jansen. It delivers the signature Evah power with a remarkable reduction in background noise, resulting in a tone that is both focused and luminous. A new manufacturing process makes the strings speak instantly under the bow while keeping tension comfortable under the fingers.
The gold-plated E string adds additional depth and brilliant shimmer to the top of the set. Compared to the original Evah Pirazzi, the NEO offers greater clarity and a cleaner, more immediate response. Compared to Evah Pirazzi Gold, the NEO is brighter and more centred.
The four voices
E, A, D, G — each string's character.
E String
Gold-plated brilliance
Gold-plated carbon steel with a removable ball end. Provides depth and a brilliant shimmer that leads the set's luminous character.
A String
Focused and powerful
Aluminium winding over a synthetic core. Clear, centred response across all dynamics, complementing the NEO's focused sound signature.
D String
Noble mid-range
Silver winding over a synthetic core. Warm and noble in the middle register, with the clarity and projection the NEO family is known for.
G String
Powerful foundation
Silver winding over a synthetic core. Full-bodied and resonant, anchoring the set with the power needed for solo and orchestral work.
Playability
Instant response, comfortable tension.
The new manufacturing process that defines NEO achieves a direct, instant bow response without raising string tension. The strings feel comfortable under the fingers while delivering the kind of focused, large-scale projection expected from professional solo strings. They settle quickly and maintain tuning stability through long rehearsals and changing conditions.

Frequently asked
Evah Pirazzi NEO, in short.
What makes NEO different from the original Evah Pirazzi?
NEO uses a new manufacturing process that reduces background noise and gives a more immediate bow response, while keeping tension the same. The original Evah Pirazzi is overtone-rich and very bright; NEO is cleaner, more centred, and more instantly responsive.
How does NEO compare to Evah Pirazzi Gold?
Evah Pirazzi Gold is warmer and darker; NEO is brighter and more focused. Gold suits players wanting a rounder, more golden sound; NEO suits those who want the full Evah power with greater clarity and direct response.
How long do Evah Pirazzi NEO strings last?
Lifespan depends on playing hours and conditions. Most professional players replace strings every few months or when the tone loses its focus and clarity. Wipe rosin off after each session to extend life.
Are these authentic Pirastro strings?
Yes. Symphonia stocks Pirastro strings through the official supply chain. If a string is faulty on arrival or fails under normal use, we arrange a replacement in line with manufacturer warranty.
