Aquila's New Nylgut strings are made from the first genuine synthetic gut string in the world. These smooth white strings offer a rich, neutral tone that sounds similar to genuine gut strings, with a loud projection. New Nylgut strings stay in tune longer, offer more accurate fret intonation, and are very stable through moisture changes.
