PirastroOliv 4/4 Violin E String - Medium Gauge - Gold-plated Steel - Loop End

I've used these strings in the past for my violin and have had pretty good success with them.

I had someone gift me this string when I graduated college. The loop broke after a month or so and cut my palm, thankfully it wasn’t my face 😅I decided to try another one thinking that it was a defective one. I bought it in October, and put it on three weeks ago… it just broke tonight in the middle of rehearsal, again on the loop.I’ve just started to experiment with different brands of strings (I’ve always used Infeld Blue), but I did like how this one sounded on my instrument.TLDR; it sounds good, but I won’t buy again because both times the loops broke within a month.

Can't go wrong with Pirastro.

Very good

Quality E string in gold.

Like others have reported here, after putting the new E string on, it broke within hours. Though musically a good string, there must be a bad batch of them out there.

By FAR the most fragile E string I’ve ever used! Unfortunately, these string’s quality is no where near acceptable and as others have stated, the E string is easily breakable... not sure if I’ll buy again for the pricey point.

The price I paid for this e string was $21.59. Purchased the first one, when tried to install it, the string broke at the loop. Then I exchanged it for another one, it broke again, but the end that attaches to the peg.Requested for refund.
