Violin strings Pirastro Eudoxa

Pirastro Eudoxa violin strings are modern wound gut strings with a sheep gut core. They were the most popular strings before the arrival of synthetic core strings, but are even today very much still in demand. Eudoxa strings are made by hand in a traditional way. They are mainly very suitable for older instruments that benefit from lower tension strings.

• Sheep gut core, polished winding
• Balanced, warm sound with good possibilities for tonal variation
• Low tension, comfortable for left hand
• Ideal for orchestra, chamber music and studio recordings
• Changing tension by 1/4 PM causes a tension change of 3%
• The E string has a ball or loop end, the A string has a ball end and the D and G strings have a knot end.

The standard set consists of following strings:

• E string: steel, aluminum wound
• A string: gut, aluminum wound 13 3/4 (medium)
• D string: gut, aluminum wound 16 3/4 (medium)
• G string: gut, silver wound 15 3/4 (medium)

Extra options:

• E string steel unwound: a more brilliant sound than the aluminum wound E string
• D and G string stiff: a darker and more powerful sound than the regular version
