Powerful

Rich tone which compliments other strings with warm sound. Great projection. Fun to play.

Best G!

The Pirastro Oliv G is the very best of the best strings. It has the warmest, most robust sound imaginable, and does not crack under pressure. The 16.5 stiff gauge is noticeably better than the 16 or lower gauges. It’s definitely worth the extra few dollars to get the stiff type over the regular kind, if you have the choice. The rigid G is a bit stronger and withstands more bow pressure.

Fantastic String

I hesitated to spend $85 for a string, but this is worth every penny. Next time I'll get one gauge thicker (I got the 16, I'll go to 16 1/2. Try it, you won't regret it.

Great G String

I ordered the same G string I have ordered for probably the last 30 years. The last time I ordered it somehow it was not as good as it was this time. I really was very happy about this and the quality of it is dark, powerful with "punch"...if you like that as I do it works great on my 1854 "Messiah Stradivarius" copy JB Vauillaume. My only reservation with the string is where it comes from as I am borderline vegan! The "gut" aspect of it troubles me now..tough to make a full decision because it's always along with other Olive strings been my favorite string/string of choice.
