The Aquila Albastro Nylgut string ($9.95 full set) is distinguishable by its milk-white color, has a specific density and acoustical qualities nearly identical to that of gut, and is the first synthetic gut string version of the natural product. This Aquila Albastro set ($9.95)comes with standard wound basses (silver plated over a nylgut core). Other strong points of Aquila Albastro Nylgut ($9.95 full set) are its elevated resistance to wear under tension-greater than that of gut-but even more important is its extraordinary immunity to changes of climate, considerably better than that of Nylon and thereby ensuring a superior stability of tuning under normal conditions. Aquila Albastro Nylgut ($9.95 full set) can be used advantageously as a substitute for Nylon strings for plucked instruments. For example, Nylgut strings are particularly well suited for the 1st through 5th courses of the renaissance and d minor baroque lutes. Aquila Albastro Nylgut ($9.95 full set) is also excellent for baroque guitars, vihuelas, ukuleles, and 19th century banjos. See the guitar page for polished Nylgut strings for classical guitars. |
