The Universal E String
The Pirastro No. 1 E String is a highly responsive string that blends well with any string set. The No. 1 produces a warm, sweet sound with plenty of brilliance, and it isn’t prone to any whistling when playing the open E. Its coated carbon steel core is wrapped with a thin chrome steel flat wire, making it incredibly tensile, durable, and resistant to corrosion and other issues caused by hand perspiration. Our Sweetwater string specialists love the Pirastro No. 1’s outstanding response and highly recommend it for any student or advancing player.
Note: The Pirastro No. 1 E string is available in both ball-end and loop-end tails. Contact your Sweetwater Sales Engineer for help finding the right strings for your instrument.
