The Goldbrokat E string is the same exact string
that Jasha Heifitz loved and used. Lenzner (the
manufacturer) states that this is a "simple steel string
with aluminum winding". More often than not is is
the "simple" things that can make the the biggest
differences. The Goldbrokat E string comes
in 3 gauges with loop or ball end.
