Aquila 17U Tenor Ukulele Strings
Category: kamaka tenor 6 string ukulele strings

The Aquila 17U strings set for tenor ukulele is a mix of Red and Super Nylgut. The innovative Red Series adds red copper powder to Nylgut, nearly doubling the density and allowing players to tune in Low G while maintaining the same sound power, quality, and intonation. The Red Series has a slightly rough texture, which eliminates the slight squeak sometimes heard with Nylgut.
Super Nylgut strings are considered an upgrade to New Nylgut, with a smooth, polished surface that feels like wax. Super Nylgut is not as stretchy as New Nylgut, which allows for quicker setting to the proper intonation when new and stronger intonation maintenance. Additionally, Super Nylgut is more resistant to sharp nut edges, fret markers, or hard nail playing.
The Mix Series for a 6 String Tenor Ukulele Set includes a Red Low A and Nylgut gCCEA tuning.
In summary, the Aquila 17U strings set for tenor ukulele provides a blend of the innovative Red Series and the upgraded Super Nylgut, offering players a versatile and durable option for their instrument.
