Pirastro 1VVA Violino Violin A String, Aluminum-Wound Synthetic, 4/4, Medium

Pirastro Violino Violin A String

The Pirastro Violino Violin A String features aluminum winding over a synthetic multifilament core, made from multiple fibers. This 4/4 Medium version uses a ball-end attachment and provides 11.5 lb of published playing tension. Its construction supports a warm tonal character, gentle feel, and ready response under light bow pressure.

For players seeking a full-size A replacement with comfortable playability, Violino offers a straightforward combination of synthetic construction and medium gauge. Choose this aluminum-wound violin string when matching an existing Violino setup or selecting a replacement that responds without heavy bowing. Its responsive feel supports players exploring changes in articulation and tone during practice and performance.

Pirastro designs the Violino family for tuning stability and resistance to temperature and humidity changes. The synthetic core helps maintain consistent behavior across changing playing conditions. Manufacturer part number 417221 identifies this specific size and construction when ordering replacements. Black peg-end silk and blue/black tailpiece wrapping distinguish the A position, while the ball end fits compatible tailpiece hardware.
