Pirastro Oliv strings are finely wound gut strings wound with metal wire for extra sound colours. These strings are ideal if youre looking to explore more traditional sounds on your instrument. Each string is made of sheep gut and is traditionally made by meticulously polishing and winding by hand. The strings are then each wound with metal chosen specifically to bring out the tonal colours of the individual string. Each winding is chosen to match the string the A string is wound with aluminium for its bright tonal qualities and the D-string has added gold to the aluminium to provide more warmth. The G string has gold and silver to add a different warm tone to the sound and the C string uses tungsten-silver which really accentuates the lower depths of the violas range. All these enhancements with metal are held together by the gut sound the core provides.
