Pirastro’s Oliv Violin Strings are celebrated for their noble and brilliant sound, offering a rich and complex tone that is perfect for a wide range of musical styles. These handmade gut strings are finely wound and polished to deliver a beautifully expressive sound, with a vast array of options in gauges, wrapping, and stiffness. For those unfamiliar with Oliv strings, the balanced set like the OV-100 or OV-101 is an excellent starting point. More experienced players can customize their setup by mixing individual strings to match their personal preferences.
Oliv strings provide a wide tonal palette, from the silver D string, which offers enhanced overtones and quick response, to the gold-aluminum D string, which adds warmth. The gold-silver G strings bring depth and resonance, while the Oliv Stiff version is ideal for those seeking a darker, more powerful sound. Whether you’re looking for brilliance or warmth, Pirastro’s Oliv strings deliver an unparalleled level of musicality, allowing players to easily customize their sound.
