Pirastro Obligato Gold Violin E String, 4/4, Medium - Loop-End

Pirastro Obligato Gold Violin E String

The Pirastro Obligato Gold Violin E String is a gold-plated chrome steel replacement string for 4/4 violins, available with a ball end or loop end. Both options use medium tension, so you can select the attachment that matches your instrument's E-string hardware while keeping the same material and tension specification.

For players replacing a worn E or preparing a spare for rehearsals and performances, this individual string offers a focused purchase without requiring a complete set. Choose a ball-end violin replacement string for hardware that accepts a ball anchor, or a loop-end E string for a matching hook attachment. Check your existing fitting before selecting the variant.

Pirastro identifies this construction as Goldchrome, meaning gold-plated chrome steel, and includes the gold E in its standard Obligato configuration. The steel construction applies specifically to this E string. Each option has its own manufacturer article number for accurate reordering. A supplied protective tube helps shield the bridge where the thin wire crosses its groove.
