Aquila 70U Red Series Single Soprano Ukulele String, Low G

This is a single low G ukulele string for soprano ukuleles, which is unwound. As the name of this series of ukulele strings suggests, the string is coloured red. It is just a single string, not a full set of red strings. The Aquila code is AQ-70U. Wound ukulele strings have a shorter lifetime, can sound too bright and instrusive and have exessive sustain, together with the noise they can make when your fingers or pick strike them. Aquila have now found a method to produce these strings unwound by adding red copper powder to their nylgut strings. This gives an unwound string with very good elasiticty and fine intonation. For the first time you can get an unwound ukulele string, without having to use stiff fluorocarbon.

Features

  • shorter lifetime than the treble strings
  • sound power too bright and intrusive compared to the plastic treble strings
  • noise caused by the fingers of the left hand
  • rapid oxidation of the metal wire during the storage & after a certain time
  • Color: redbrown
  • Surface: slightly rough; this texture has eliminated the squeak that sometime hapen with the Nylguts.
  • Intonation: accurate past the 12th fret
  • Pressing strongly the string on the frets, the note does not became sharper
  • It is not necessary to file the nut slot wider to accommodate it like hapen with the fluocarbon G strings
  • Density: about twice than standard white Nylgut
  • Elasticity: like Nylgut/Nylon strings.
  • Tuning: fast & stable.
  • Single packaged 4th unwound Soprano Low G tuning (gauge: .95 mm)
