Aquila Red Series AQ-90 Banjo Ukulele Strings - High G - 1 Set of 4

I have used and loved Aqulia strings on guitars and banjos I have made. So when I made a Banjolele for a great niece this was logical choice. They sound Great!

I play a banjolele and wish I had gotten these strings first. I bought Ernie balls and they were barely better than the cheep strings that came on it. Then I bought these and wow! Bright, loud, and hold tune once they are stretched properly. I have been using them for a while now and they still sound great and I haven't snapped a string yet.

Installed on a ukebango, I had to be careful of the string placement since the only differentiator was the colored dot on each package for each string.After installing and tuning the sound was very good.

These were for an antique banjolele restoration job, already had super nylguts on my other uke, easy choice. They play and sound great. These particular strings are supposed to sound warmer than the other Aquila banjo ukulele strings, probably a good thing for these little old models as they tend to sound kinda dinky. Can't say the old girl sounds like a million bucks (never really did, nice uke however), more like 8 or 9 hundred grand though, basically these strings make it sound as good as it possibly can and I love the tone very much, no way it ever sounded this good before, more of a lower end than I expected. These take several days to break in and hold their tune well. Why red though?

These are very good strings. They work well on my banjo ukulele. My fingers don’t get sore after playing with these like they did with other strings.

Really enjoy the sound and feel of these strings

I liked the sound but I tried four sets of these and they all had a string break, sometimes immediately and sometimes after a few days, once while the ukulele was just sitting there. I followed the install video exactly. Twice the C string and twice the A string. Just bad luck?

The first set of these I had worked and sounded great, and I also use Aquila Reds on my regular uke without issue so far. But I have gotten two sets of these now where the A string snapped while I was tuning it. Disappointed, because I've otherwise been satisfied with Aquila strings up to this point.

perfection!

Suenan muy bien, pero la primera y quinta cuerda se tronaron antes de llegar a afinarse, las pude volver a poner y como en 3 intentos en cada cuerda siempre se volvían a reventar.

5 Stars, only because there is no way of giving more!These strings are just incredible - my KALA Soprano Banjo Ukulele sounds awesome! The Aquila Nylgut strings it came with were O.K. The Worth Browns I swapped them for were better, but these are a quantum leap forward.The idea of controlling the frequency of each string by changing its density rather than its diameter means that all the strings are roughly the same thickness. This makes chord fingering much more consistent, and the sound is brilliant.

I've been looking for a set of strings for my banjolele for ages. To cut a long story short I've managed to drop on the above strings by accicdent and glad I did.. Great sound, they stay in tune. I bought 2 more sets. Highly recommend.

Arrived very promptly with full fitting instructions and a link to a fitting video, fitted strings to my Barnes and Mullins UBJ1 and it has most definitely improved the tone over the standard fitted strings. I thoroughly recommend this supplier (Original Artisan) and these quality strings .
