Aquila7U Concert Ukulele Strings Set

These type of strings offer a Gut like performance without the "Stretching" problems and cost of traditional gut strings .Wonderful tone and definitive attack .

I just got my first ukulele and all the reviews for the uke stated the factory strings were junk which effects the sound and performance of the ukulele of course. Most of the recommendations were to change the factor string out with Aquila Strings. I took their advice but the ukulele arrived before the strings, but I played it anyway much to the sadness of my now sore fingers I may add. The sound of the original strings also left much to be desired, the instrument sounded flat further down the neck to a point that cords played sounded muted. I was hoping like others testified to that it was not the instrument but the poor quality strings.Well the strings arrived and I could not wait to install them and see if my ukulele was not defective for it looked great but sounded like a plastic toy.I threw on the new Aquila's tuned them up....again and again...it is not the ukulele but new strings take some time to stretch. After a hour the strings were beginning to hold tune and the sound......wow! It was like a whole new instrument. The feel...my fingers were so much happier as they traveled from cord to cord.I just love these strings and see hope for learning the uke less painfully (my wife's ears may disagree).Check out YouTube and see how these wonderful strings are made, it is amazing and you will appreciate the price paid for these strings so much more.Thanks Aquila and Thanks again for a fine product Amazon![...]

Just as an FYI for first time Ukulele string buyers and users- we have found that ukulele strings stretch more than you might anticipate. This is particularly true of you also play guitar. My daughter commented several times while putting these on how much they stretched out.These were easy to put on. They sound great. I really have enjoyed the sound coming from the ukulele since these strings have been put on the uke.Great product.

I’ve tried other strings on my uke but I’ll never buy a different kind again. Hands dow, best uke strings on the market! They are a little thicker of a string so they may be a little harder if you have a slotted bridge like I have but they sound beautiful and hold their tune really well. 10/10 recommend!

I had another brand on which had a very bright sound; I liked it, plus the extra volume that created. However there seemed to be a buzz kind of a problem. THESE strings have a soft, mellow tone and no buzz. They took longer to hold a tune but are very nice. Ukes can be loud or obnoxious to some; these are about as mellow as it gets. Nice strings.

Low-G string is a great alternative to try on my ukulele. Love the extra depth of sound. Since the low-g is a wound string, it was a little harder to string, but I managed. Had heard lots of good things about Aquila strings, and I'm very satisfied with this purchase.

I just started using these but they sound amazing, the strings I took of were really cheap ones and the difference is incredible, even compared to the the last strings I had before those (don't remember the brand) that were pretty decent and lasted me a long time and a lot of playing these are much louder which is good for me because I busk and it is usually hard to hear a ukulele on the street.

I use these strings on my classroom ukes. I find they settle in quickly and stay in tune despite the abuse heaped upon the instruments by multiple students. I have some strings 4 years old, and nothing has broken yet. These make even cheap toy ukes playable. These are the strings to use for classrooms with teachers (like me) crazy enough to teach ukulele to 4th graders.
