Pirastro String Set
Obligato,
warm and full.
A complete E, A, D, G set for 4/4 violin. Warm and full with a brilliant, rich overtone spectrum and a focused tone. Medium tension. Choose the available goldsteel or regular steel E configuration in the selector.
What's in the set
A complete four-string set.
One full set for 4/4 violin: the selected goldsteel or regular steel E, plus aluminium-wound A and silver-wound D and G strings.
Tonal character
Warm, focused, exceptionally stable.
Obligato strings are warm and full, with a brilliant, rich overtone spectrum and a focused tone. They are loved by chamber and orchestral musicians for their tone volume and exceptional blend, and offer excellent playability and response across the entire dynamic range.
Like other strings in this family, Obligato strings are absolutely insensitive to variations in temperature and humidity.
Set configuration
Choose your E configuration.
The standard configuration uses a goldsteel E. Regular steel E-ball and E-loop alternatives are also available for players who prefer a slightly more direct top voice.
String by string
How each voice contributes.
E String — adds brilliance, power, and direct soloistic projection to the otherwise warm set.
A String — exceptionally warm, rich, gut-like sound. Blends with D and G.
D String — warm and powerful, complex and rich with immediate response.
G String — deep, warm, voluminous foundation without sacrificing clarity.
