Abstract: We study both analytically and numerically the spectrum of inhomogeneous strings with $mathcalPT$-symmetric density. We discuss an exactly solvable model of $mathcalPT$-symmetric string which is isospectral to the uniform string; for more general strings, we calculate exactly the sum rules $Z(p)equivsu{m}_{n=1}^{i}nfty1/E_n^p$, with $p=1,2,dots$ and find explicit expressions which can be used to obtain bounds on the lowest eigenvalue. A detailed numerical calculation is carried out for two non-solvable models depending on a parameter, obtaining precise estimates of the critical values where pair of real eigenvalues become complex.
