Set value Complete Set Current Set pricing is shown above. Why buy as a set Three reasons to take the whole pack. Tonal coherence All four strings voiced together for the same complex, rich Oliv gut character. The gold-wound D defines the midrange, carried through from the deep G to the brilliant gold E. Set value The complete Set is priced below the same four strings purchased individually. Professional gut, complete The gold standard for professional gut strings, matched and ready in one order. Everything required for period-instrument and solo performance, from the gold-plated E down to the gut G. About Oliv Complex, rich, and steeped in tradition. Oliv strings are crafted with a traditional gut core, offering a complex and rich tone that evolves beautifully with each note. They represent the gold standard for traditional gut strings, known for remarkable overtones, a broad dynamic range, and exceptional responsiveness across the entire register. The gold-plated E string options complement the warm gut character of the lower strings. Oliv strings are favoured by professional violinists who seek the unique warmth and complexity that only a gut core can provide in solo performance. The four voices E Gold, A, D Gold, G — each string's character. E String Gold-plated clarity Gold-plated steel, ball and loop options. Clear, brilliant, and powerful. Complements the warm gut character of the lower strings without overpowering them. A String Brilliant gut A Gut core, 13.5 gauge. Bright and responsive in the upper register, with the nuanced character that defines a fine gut A string. D String Gold-wound midrange Gold wound, gut core, 16.5 gauge. Rich overtones and warm depth through the middle register. The gold winding gives Oliv D its unique tonal character. G String Deep gut foundation Gut core, 16 gauge. Deep, warm, and richly complex on the low string, providing the powerful foundation expected from a professional gut G. Technical specifications Materials and construction.

Replace a single E, A, D, or G without buying the whole set. Same Oliv gut core construction, both E gold end variants available. Shop individual strings Frequently asked Oliv set, in short. What is included in the Oliv violin set? All four strings for a 4/4 violin: E gold-plated steel (ball or loop), A gut core 13.5 gauge, D gold wound gut core 16.5 gauge, and G gut core 16 gauge, all in medium tension. Ball end or loop end — which E Gold should I choose? Loop end fits most fine tuners and adjusters. Ball end is required for tailpieces without a fine tuner loop attachment. Check your tailpiece fitting before ordering. How long do Oliv gut strings last? Gut strings generally have a shorter lifespan than synthetic strings, particularly in humid climates. Replace when the tone becomes unreliable, intonation drifts, or the string surface shows wear. Wipe rosin off after every session and store the instrument in a stable environment. Why is the set cheaper than buying four singles? The complete Set is priced below the same four strings purchased individually. Tonal consistency is the larger advantage: all four strings are voiced together for the same Oliv gut character. Are these authentic Pirastro strings? Yes. Symphonia stocks Pirastro through the official supply chain. Faulty strings are replaced in line with manufacturer warranty. Show more
