Pirastro Eudoxa strings deliver a very warm, full, and beautifully rounded tone. They offer the typical, rich gut sound with a great diversity of sound colors and modulation possibilities. Furthermore, they provide a highly balanced sound image across all strings, with a soft and lyrical character. The sheep gut core of Pirastro Eudoxa strings is manufactured, wound, and polished by hand in the traditional way.
