2-Pack Aquila New Nylgut 10U Tenor Ukulele Strings 26 inch Regular High G with 2 Free Felt Picks
The New Nylgut is the first product developed and patented by Aquila.
The New Nylgut is nor common Nylon or Carbon (Fluocarbon fishing line or PVDF), or a mix of them. It is a plastic compound of three different components
Compared to Nylon, the New Nylgut produces a better sound and stays in tune better, this because the moisture absorption is less of .1% against the 2.0% of Nylon normally employed for the musical strings (i.e. Du Pont Tynex polyammide 6-12).
Due to the higher density, similar to that of pure gut (1.30 gr/cm3), the New Nylgut produces a better sound than Nylon and it is not so metallic like those of the so- called ‘Carbon’ (Fluorocarbon) PVDF strings.
In other words, the New Nylgut is probably the first genuine syntetic gut in the world.
The New Nylgut assures:
a better sound than Nylon or PVDF, similar to the genuine gut strings;
a more accurated fret-intonation due to the well gauged material;
a very stable intonation under moisture changes.

As someone who as played ukulele for years and never used a felt pick, they were not what I was expecting. The gold one is very firm, with almost no give, snd the grey one is pretty flexible. They definitely add more sound though than just your…
