AQUILA 88U RED SERIES Tenor Ukulele, Low-G Tuning, Key of C - GCEA (G4 wound)
Category: kamaka tenor ukulele strings

The RED SERIES sets provide superior performance over traditional strings for musicians who love bright sounds and powerful voicing across the full scale of the instrument. Before this, the world had never heard a sound like this, simply because it did not exist. These strings offer excellent elasticity and accurate intonation past the 12th fret. When pressing strongly on the string at the frets, the note does not become sharper, and it is not necessary to file the nut slot wider to accommodate it.
The Set / Tenor Ukulele 4-string (g c' e' a' - Low G Tuning, Key of C) features a G-string (4th) that is tuned 1 octave lower, and the A/E/C strings are made of a mixture of NYLGUT and red copper powder, resulting in a red-brown color.
The Red Series strings are made from Nylgut that is first made elastic and then combined with red copper powder in order to increase the density to about twice that of standard white Nylgut. This slightly rough surface has eliminated the squeak that sometimes occurs with Nylguts. The new red-brown strings offer a great feel and excellent tonal characteristics.
Overall, these ukulele strings (4 string) provide a superior performance and a unique sound that has never been heard before, making them a great choice for musicians who love bright and powerful tones across the full range of their instrument.
