Aquila 4U New Nylgut Soprano Ukulele Strings - GCEA Tuning - High G

Aquila's groundbreaking New Nylgut represents the world's first truly authentic synthetic gut string, developed through innovative patented technology that combines three distinct plastic components into a revolutionary musical string material.

Unlike conventional nylon strings or carbon-based alternatives such as fluorocarbon fishing line or PVDF, New Nylgut offers superior tuning stability through remarkably low moisture absorption of less than 0.1%. This compares favourably against standard nylon strings like Du Pont Tynex polyamide 6-12, which absorb up to 2.0% moisture and consequently suffer from tuning instability.

The material's density closely matches that of natural gut at 1.30 gr/cm�, producing a warmer, more musical tone quality that surpasses both traditional nylon and the often harsh, metallic characteristics associated with so-called 'Carbon' fluorocarbon strings. This density matching ensures authentic tonal properties whilst maintaining the practical advantages of modern synthetic materials.
