Aquila 7U Concert Ukulele Nylgut Strings
No longer available at zZounds
Recreating the feel and sonorities of traditional gut strings, Aquila's Nylgut series is a worthy successor and reliable string for any classical guitar.
Overview
The Aquila 7U belongs to Aquila's Nylgut series, a series designed to reproduce the promptness of attack and brilliance of timbre that characterize original gut strings. Aquila aimed to design a synthetic string that has the same acoustic properties a gut, but without its typical limitations. The Nylgut series allows the player to rediscover the sonorities familiar to the great 19th and 20th century ukulele masters, while guaranteeing a stability of tuning higher than that of the even the best gut and nylon strings. Until the mid-20th century Ukuleles were mounted exclusively in gut, a material that had been used for thousand of years and that combines excellent promptness of attack with brilliance of timbre - very different, in other words, from modern nylon strings. And until recently the typical sound quality of gut has been a constant point of reference for luthiers, composers and performers alike.
A fundamental aim of our research has therefore been to make a synthetic product having the same acoustic properties as gut - but without its typical defects - (high cost, limited duration and high instability under varying climatic).
