## Overview

Aquila AQ-96 Guilele Strings feature a proprietary Nylgut composite that blends synthetic materials to deliver the authentic feel and sweet tone of gut strings.

## Description

The world's most renowned ukulele string maker introduces new Nylgut ukulele strings and is Aquila's first product to be developed in house to be its own proprietary design. Nylgut strings were developed by blending three different synthetic components to make a composite material that sounds better and stays in tune better than standard nylon strings, but with the feel and playability of genuine gut. An added feature of this exclusive composite material is that is was designed to absorb less moisture than other strings; which greatly improves intonation and tuning accuracy. Compared to standard Nylon strings, New Nylgut strings have a density similar to gut, but provide san even more refined sound; eliminating the characteristic metallic-like tones often found in other synthetic designs. For the best sounding synthetic gut string for ukuleles, that still gives the player the feel of genuine gut, Aquila New Nylgut are the perfect choice!

Review: Perfect for Yamaha Guitalele GL-1 - great sound - These strings are the perfect compliment to the Yamaha Guitalele GL-1 especially if you want A to A tuning. You can play strings 1-4 just like a low G Ukulele or you can play all 6 strings just like guitar 5th position because that is exactly what it is. A 6 string ukulele is an entirely different instrument. These strings tune well and sound great, a nice rich tone. Remember to tune slowly to allow the strings to stretch. Nylgut like nylon strings will stretch based on humidity, temperature and tension. I tune 1 octave lower then allow time to stretch. The wound strings generally hold their tension longer. If you try to tune it too quickly the strings might break. Make sure you always have some give in the string before you tighten it more. The strings are not labeled but wound strings are the top bass strings, thick to thin from top to bottom and the unwound nylgut strings are the treble strings 3 to 1 also thick to thin. You can tell the thickness by sight. Most importantly, make sure you are tuning to the correct octave to avoid breaking the strings: A2, D3, G3, C4, E4, A4, for standard tuning. Try guitar beads on the bridge if you have trouble tying the bridge knots. The strings are all white so they make a nice contrast against the fingerboard. They ar not squeaky at all so positioning is clean. The price is right for these quality strings.
