Aquila 76U - Red Series, Ukulele Single String - Tenor, Low-G (8-String 4th), Unwound – Enhanced Low-End for Tenor Ukulele

This model is a single Low-G string designed for 8-string tenor ukuleles, giving players a way to achieve a deeper, warmer sound. The unique combination of Nylgut and red copper powder delivers high density and a satisfying playing feel. If you are seeking a reliable, unwound Low-G string for GCEA (GG CC EE AA) tuning, the YRS-23 provides a notable balance of tone and durability.

Innovative Red Series Material Blend

What stands out is the proprietary Red Series formulation—Nylgut is made elastic and fortified with red copper powder for nearly double the density of standard white Nylgut. This design results in a red-brown string that features notable elasticity, a slightly textured surface, and reduced finger squeak during play.

Functional Design for Playability and Sound

• Material: Nylgut + red copper powder — creates a string with higher density and stability
• When tuning to Low-G, the medium 1.00–1.04 mm gauge gives a satisfying blend of comfort and tonal balance.
• Surface: Slightly rough texture reduces string noise and squeaking when shifting positions
