About Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Neo

Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Neo — violin string set 4/4, 2025

Evah Pirazzi Neo is Pirastro's new flagship synthetic violin string, developed in 2025 in close collaboration with the outstanding violinist Janine Jansen. It is the third generation of the Evah Pirazzi family, following the original series (2000) and Evah Pirazzi Gold (2012).

In Janine Jansen's own words: "Excellent malleable sound, big, powerful, centered, noble and luminous. The strings stay in tune incredibly quickly, are very easy to work with from the start and feel extremely comfortable under the fingers."

Key innovation: Thanks to a new manufacturing process, Evah Pirazzi Neo offers exceptional tuning stability and is ready to play immediately after installation — with no extended break-in period. Full carrying power is achieved without increasing string tension.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Evah Pirazzi Neo differ from the original Evah Pirazzi?

Neo retains the full carrying capacity and power of the original Evah Pirazzi (2000) while reducing the background noise component. The result is a clearer, more transparent sound with the same projection and a lighter, more direct response.

Is there a long break-in period after installation?

No. Thanks to the new manufacturing process, Evah Pirazzi Neo offers exceptional tuning stability and are ready for full performance virtually immediately after installation — significantly faster than most synthetic strings.

Which violins are these strings suited for?

Evah Pirazzi Neo are designed for 4/4 violins of all levels, from student instruments to concert violins. They are particularly recommended for instruments that need greater projection and tonal clarity.

What is the "Removable Ball End" on the E-string?

The E-string features a removable ball end that can be detached easily, making it compatible with both ball-end and loop-end tailpieces.

Which rosin pairs best with Evah Pirazzi Neo?

Pirastro recommends Evah Pirazzi Gold rosin — specially formulated for synthetic Evah Pirazzi strings to provide optimal grip and tone production.
