Aquila New Nylgut AQ-15 Tenor Ukulele Strings - Wound Low G - 1 Set of 4

I have played guitars for years but the tenor ukulele is the newest toy for me and after some weeks now, I am absolutely having a ball with it. I am not sure what strings were on my ukulele when I bought it but my first set of purchased strings were Aquila with the high g and I really liked them. Now, my second purchased set of string are the same brand but with the low G string. If you are new to the ukulele like myself, some really novice information for you is that the lower G really fills out the sound and seems to fit more naturally into the scale of things but the high G is kinda cool too. The high g tends to be more in line for the more banjo style picking and well just more interesting strumming sounds and styles and harmonics, in general. Just now really starting to understand how versatile this instrument can be. I definitely like the Aquila brand. Today, it is more of just having a dilemma on which G to play with because both have their own merits. Probably will have to go and buy another ukulele so I can have both options. Always, open minded to hear and learn from those out there that have the experience so please feel free to respond.

Five stars overall - great sounding strings. Be aware that the wound 4th string won't last as long as the others that come with this set. Aquila's website warns you of this, but the amazon product page does not. From Aquila's website: "Please read: the wound strings used for all Aquila ukulele sets such as soprano low G, concert low G, tenor low G, baritone in guitar tuning, and a few other varieties that use a wound string, use a very fine wire wrapping on the wound strings in order to produce their excellent tone. These strings do not have the long life span of the more durable but poor sounding wound strings offered by other manufacturers. Players who use Aquila ukulele sets with wound strings please be aware that the wound strings will need to be replaced much more often than the plain Nylgut strings that make up the rest of the set. We advise that players purchase 3 or 4 extra single wound strings with every set. When played often a wound string may last only about 1-2 weeks, which is also dependent on the condition of the frets. This is considered to be normal wear for these strings and is not a defective string. Thank you for your understanding."

Sounds great and easy to install.

In my opinion, the best ukelele strings out there. Soft enough for tender fingers, and I have some right now on my baritone that have lasted at least a year even though a string is tufting.

I found the strings to play somewhat muted; not a very bright sound. Also, the strings are somewhat slippery, resulting in misplayed chords.

fantastic quality, feels great, has a good sound quality, rarely have to tune but due to OCD check it every time with the tuner. Still on original strings for over 6 months and it gets played everyday so they are durable. We buy this brand for the guitars, Banjo and Uke.

Wow! I was about to sell my ukulele because I had tried many brands of strings on it and it just was not sounding the way I wanted it to sound. I popped these strings on my ukulele and started tuning them up. These strings seem to stretch out more than other brands I have played with (on the first tune up), so it feels like you are winding for a long time without much change in the tune. However, once they get to their more settled point and you start to play, you will fall in love! I can't seem to put it down now!! They are very punchy and bright! It is exactly what I was missing and now I can/want (to) play my ukulele long enough to get in the zone. I would highly recommend them and I feel they are well worth the money!! ------- Update ---------- I have been playing on them for about 20 days now and I still like them just as much as day one! I usually have to do minor tweaks to the tuning before playing. Low G still has a rich sound to it as well. It (low G) has slight fret marks warn in to it from the playing. All the strings still have a great amount of volume as well. I will update if I come across anything important!

Well priced, arrived quickly, and very easy to swap with a few YouTube videos. A string winder is recommended but I had no issues just turning the pegs manually during the process. The low G wound string adds a beautiful depth to my tenor like and makes it feel like a brand new instrument.

Las compré sólo para cambiar a Low G mi ukulele tenor marca Córdoba, que ya viene con cuerdas Aquila de fábrica, entonces le va perfecto. Me encanta el sonido con Low G, no sé cómo no había cambiado antes. Obviamente hace que el sonido sea un poco más grave, pero no pierde el toque del ukulele y a mi no suena como a guitarra o guitalele, como he leído de algunas personas. Cabe aclarar que yo en lo personal hago más strumming que picking, y no sé si para picking no convenga cambiar de High G a Low G. IMPORTANTE: Si eres principiante y buscas el sonido típico agudo y dulce ESTAS CUERDAS NO SON PARA TI. Busca el modelo que diga “High G”
