Oliv strings are low tension, sheep gut core, wound and polished. Noted for a brilliant, complex sound with big tone. Altering the gauge by 1/2 PM changes the tension by 4%. The brand is identified by its olive green thread with white spiral at the tailpiece end. We usually stock gauge; there may be delays on light and heavy gauge orders. (These strings are higher tension than Chorda and Eudoxa)
