Violin Pirastro Obligato Strings Set (Medium)
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. This configuration is the E-Steel variant with a ball-end E.
What's in the set
A complete four-string set.
One full set for 4/4 violin: a regular steel E, plus aluminium-, silver-, and silver-wound synthetic A, 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
The E-Steel variant.
This configuration replaces the standard goldsteel E with a regular steel E-string to offer a slightly different tonal balance — a touch more directness on the 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.
