Armour ARM140C Standard Concert Ukulele Gig Bag

Aquila has revolutionised the string industry with the world’s first eco-friendly synthetic string, the Bionylon. This groundbreaking material represents a significant leap forward in sustainable music technology, combining environmental responsibility with exceptional performance characteristics that musicians demand.

The first three strings feature round, smooth Bionylon monofilament construction, utilising Aquila’s newly discovered material that produces a distinctively warm and mellow tone. What sets Bionylon® apart is its composition – 63% plant derivative – which achieves a remarkable reduction of over 30% in carbon dioxide emissions during polymer synthesis compared to conventional nylons used in musical string manufacturing.

The bass strings showcase sophisticated engineering with high-quality silver-plated copper winding around a Nylgut multifilament core. This innovative core design provides superior tensile strength while maintaining low moisture absorption properties, ensuring rapid and stable tuning that remains consistent even when environmental humidity fluctuates.
