PIRASTRO String Manual
> Changing strings
Violin E-String Bridge Protector
Our violin E-strings are provided with a bridge protector, a small plastic tube that protects the violin’s bridge from being damaged by the thin wire string. With proper installation, this bridge protector has no effect on the sound of the strings. While installing the string, place the plastic tube on top of the bridge, keeping a longer length of plastic tubing over the small amount of string that stretches between the bridge and the tailpiece. If the bridge already has a small piece of parchment installed over the E-string groove, then the plastic bridge protector is likely no longer necessary and you can remove it from the string before installation.
Only remove and replace one string at a time
To maintain tension across the instrument, keep all strings up to pitch except for the one being changed. The strings can be changed in any order, but it is important to completely change one string before changing another.
During the changing process, the strings may lose tension unevenly. As often as possible, bring all strings back up to pitch except for the one being changed. Do not over-correct the pitch.
The positions of the bridge on top of your instrument and the sound post inside are vital to the instrument’s sound quality and structural integrity. These two wooden pieces are held in place due to the high tension of the strings stretched above them. Both will likely fall over or shift out of place if the tension is drastically released by removing more than one string at a time.
Prevent excess string from overlapping on the pegs
Ensure that each successive revolution of excess string around the peg is wrapped around parallel to the previously wrapped string material.
Tune to pitch, NOT higher than pitch
When tuning, avoid tightening strings above normal pitch. All strings are prone to breakage when over-tuned. Steel strings are especially sensitive to over-tuning, despite being highly robust while playing.
New strings will stretch significantly within the first 5-10 minutes after installation. Continue to retune each newly installed string to pitch during this time period. After 30 minutes, most of the stretching process is complete, and after 1 or 2 days, the strings will reach their maximum tuning stability. By then the tone quality and projection will have evolved as well.
