Beautiful 24k Gold E string
These strings are beautiful! The sound is very warm and resonant. High register notes are clear and focused. Slightly mellower than the original. For the price, this string is amazing. Would buy it again.

WILL PURCHASE AGAIN !
Only installed for one day, so cannot say I (yet) decipher a significant difference in tone from the previous Pirastro Wondertone E-string, but believe it does not 'cut' into one's finger as much as a non-coated steel strings so liking it very much. It might have a slightly mellower tone; I've never had an e-string I didn't like.. and... yes, it is attractive. Others more advanced on the violin than I may decipher more of a 'sound' difference (on my old 'rescued' violin). This E-string sounds well (to me) with the other Pirastro Wondertone strings. As always, Shar delivered quickly. Time will tell if it's as durable as the standard steel strings. I'll write a new review (or edit here if possible) if my review changes.
Mr.
It went false less than two weeks after installation. Maybe it's a lemon, or just not compatible with my violin and Dominant A, D, and G strings. But based on my one-time experience I am giving it an one-star.
