Description
Pirastro Eudoxa viola strings are an ideal choice for the orchestral, chamber, or studio musician. These lower tension Eudoxa viola strings are extremely well balanced, offer a warm and smooth tone, and have an easier feel on the left hand.
The A and D strings have a ball-end, while the G and C strings have a tie knot end in the traditional gut style.
The D, G, and C are available in the Standard or Rigid style. The Rigid provides a darker and more powerful sound as compared to the standard strings. The Eudoxa-Oliv C string is also available for those that desire an alternative C for either the Eudoxa or Oliv sets.
Tone: Abundant warmth, well balanced
Playability: Reduced left hand resistance due to lower string tension
Stability: Affected by temperature and climate change
