AQUILA RED SERIESCONCERT LOW-G TUNING UKULELE STRINGS

Key of C GCEA set: a unique look and a strong, consistent sound.

Until now, it was necessary to increase a string's gauge to reach lowerfrequencies. But increasing the string's diameter also increasesinternal dampening. That make the string less bright, less responsiveand more muffled; the thicker the string, the duller the sound. Ourrevolutionary new approach never introduced before changes the specificweight of the material, increasing it progressively to leave the gaugeunchanged.

 

The result is amazing the instrument soundsbrighter, more powerful and more responsive through the entire range ofthe fret board. The strings also maintain their intonation better(because thicker strings need to be fretted harder, pulling themfarther out of tune). Until now, this result was reached only withharps where the scale of the strings is continuously varied.

RED SERIES sets provide superior performance overtraditional strings for musicians who love clear, sharp sounds andpowerful voicing across the full scale of the instrument.

You never heard a sound likethis before, simply because before it did not exist.

 

Who never dreamed of tuning the ukulele inlow G, without using a fourth wound string type?

Wound strings indeed, together with the qualityof sound power shows problems that in ukulele are veryconsidered:

1) shorter lifetime than the treble strings

2) sound power too bright and intrusive comparedto the plastic treble strings

3) excessive sustain

4) noise caused by the fingers of the left hand

5) rapid oxidation of the metal wire in case ofacid sweat

 

The only alternative solution used today is theuse of a fluocarbon string. Its performance, however, is never entirelysatisfactory because a low string, to be really good, must not only usematerials with high density but also a bit flexible. Fluorocarbon isunfortunately a very stiff material.

 

Density,is indeed the secret for the sound quality of a low string.

From now, you will finally be able to tune yourukulele in Low G ensuring sound power, sound quality and intonation onfrets better than the fluorocarbon strings fully integrated with thatof the upper treble strings.
