The tone is dark and rich with great projection which is ideal for slap style but also great for old-school pizzicato, for jazz players with modern instruments and for baroque arco styles. The tension is low and even across the entire fingerboard.

The plain gut G and D of the Evah Pirazzi Slap set are made of sheep gut using new techniques which allow for reduced playing-in-time and increased tuning stability without losing the beauty of the gut sound. This new core material offers an unmatched wide range of sounds, is absolutely insensitive to temperature and humidity changes, and offers the musician an unparalleled dynamic range. The A and E strings are then precision wound with a finely polished chrome steel flat wire.

The design of each individual string has been carefully matched to one another allowing for effortlessly smooth transitions from string to string without any tonal break between the plain gut D and synthetic A.
