A Unique Feel and a Strong, Even Tone!
Until now, it was necessary to increase a string’s diameter to produce a lower pitch. However, increasing the string diameter also raises internal damping. This makes the string less bright, less responsive, and duller; the thicker the string, the duller the tone. Aquila’s revolutionary new approach changes the material’s specific weight by gradually increasing it while keeping the gauge nearly unchanged.
The Result Is Astonishing
The instruments sound brighter, more powerful, and more responsive across the entire fretboard. The strings also maintain their intonation better, since thicker strings require harder fretting, which causes them to go out of tune more easily.
Red Series string sets deliver better performance than conventional strings for musicians who love bright tones and powerful intonation across the instrument’s full range.
You’ve never heard a sound like this before, because it simply didn’t exist until now!
