Aquila AQ-153C Red Series Guitalele String Set – 17" Scale, E Tuning

The Aquila AQ-153C Red Series Guitalele String Set is specifically designed for guileles and guitaleles with a 17-inch scale and E-tuned (EADgbe). This innovative string set utilizes a unique Nylgut formula enriched with red copper powder, nearly doubling the density of standard white Nylgut. The result is a warm, balanced tone with excellent projection, without the drawbacks of traditionally wound strings such as overbrightness, shorter lifespan, or unwanted noise. Thanks to the improved elasticity and slightly roughened surface, this set offers a pleasant playing experience with accurate intonation, even beyond the 12th fret.

With the Aquila AQ-153C, you'll enjoy a clear, full, and well-balanced sound that perfectly complements the unparalleled playability of your guilele. The set includes an unusually innovative, unwound fourth string, allowing you to enjoy a low-G tone without the limitations of fluorocarbon strings. Furthermore, no adjustments to the bridge are required, as the strings fit perfectly in the existing slots. Ideal for guitarists transitioning to guilele, or ukulele players seeking a richer tone with optimal tuning stability and extended lifespan.
