Description
Pirastro Eudoxa is probably the world's best known string and has been a staple of many players over the last 60 years. It is a traditional covered gut string.
Nowadays these strings appeal mainly to players who value the unique tonal properties and playing feel of a traditional gut cored string and are prepared to accept the need for more regular tuning and their sensitivity to changes in climatic conditions.
The sheep gut core of Eudoxa strings is manufactured, wound and polished in the traditional way, by hand. Well balanced warm tone with a great diversity of sound. Low string tension and a comfortable left hand feeling ideal for orchestra, chamber music and studio takes.
Sterling silver on gut.

Pros: The string is light and flexible and creates a warm sound.
Cons: It was a bit wooly to begin with,before it was played-in and I had to experiment with some string changes to get the tension of the whole set balanced!
Other: I replaced an Oliv C string with the Eudora C string, (Oliv was very strong and focused), but I prefer the reedy sound of the Eudoxa C at the moment and I have a whole Eudoxa light set on my cello. I changed the strong gauge A Eudoxa for a pure gut string, yesterday and the Eudoxa C string has mellowed with the new combination and I love it!.
Beginner
