The 15 3\/4 option matches the G gauge in Pirastro's medium Oliv set. Choose a lower number for less tension or a higher number for more tension. When buying a gold-silver wound string, check both the gauge and packaging designation to identify the intended variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePirastro forms, winds, and polishes the gut core by hand. All five choices share the same core material, winding, instrument size, and tailpiece termination, so the gauge selection determines the listed tension difference. For an accurate replacement, compare the article number below with your current package, and confirm that your tailpiece accommodates a knot end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSheep Gut Core:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides traditional gut construction for your violin setup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGold-Silver Winding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Combines metal winding with the natural core.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFive Gauge Choices:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lets you select a specific tension across quarter-PM increments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandcrafted Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Uses manual core preparation, winding, and polishing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnot End:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits tailpieces that accept this termination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Packaging:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supplies the straight-packaged version.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGauge Differences and String Tension\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePM means Pirastro Meter, the manufacturer's gauge designation.
