Aquila New Nylgut 8-String Tenor Ukulele String Set

Aquila New Nylgut 8-String Tenor Ukulele String Set with 1 Red Series Nylgut (G) string.

New Nylgut is not common Nylon or Carbon (Fluocarbon fishing line or PVDF), or a mix of them. It is a plastic compound of three different components. Compared to Nylon, New Nylgut produces a better sound and stays in tune better, this because the moisture absorption is less of .1% against the 2.0% of Nylon normally employed for the musical strings (i.e. Du Pont Tynex® polyammide 6-12). Due to the higher density, similar to that of pure gut (1.30 gr/cm3), the New Nylgut produces a better sound than Nylon and it is not so metallic like those of the so- called ‘Carbon’ (Fluorocarbon) PVDF strings.

In other words, the New Nylgut is probably the first genuine synthetic gut in the world and assures:

• A better sound than Nylon or PVDF, similar to the genuine gut strings
• A more accurate fret-intonation due to the well gauged material
• A very stable intonation under moisture changes.

Our sets are made using innovative materials, discovered and perfected in our laboratory after a long period of research and after being thoroughly tested, thus giving rise to a new synthetic product of high technology.
