Pirastro Permanent Set

Description

The Pirastro Permanent Full Set for 4/4 cello is a premium choice for players seeking brilliant projection, warmth, and consistent response across the entire range of the instrument. This medium-gauge set includes the A and D strings, built on high-tensile steel cores and wrapped in chrome steel, as well as the G and C strings, which feature a rope core wound with tungsten.

The upper strings (A and D) are known for their clear, radiant tone and fast articulation, making them ideal for solo passages and expressive phrasing in the higher register. The lower strings (G and C) offer rich, warm depth with a slightly shorter decay, giving cellists the tonal power they need without sacrificing nuance. The balance between brilliance and warmth throughout the set allows for expressive flexibility and tonal control in a wide range of musical styles.

Permanent strings are praised for their quick response, making them well-suited for advanced students, chamber musicians, and professionals alike. They hold pitch with exceptional stability, even with frequent playing or during shifts in temperature and humidity. These strings also perform beautifully on electric or electrically-amplified cellos, offering a clean and controlled tone with minimal interference.

Whether you’re performing solo repertoire, blending into a section, or exploring electric amplification, the Pirastro Permanent set delivers a dynamic sound that responds to your touch. With immediate playability and a refined tonal profile, this set is a trusted choice for cellists who demand performance and durability in one reliable package.
