Aquila Alabastro Classical Guitar Strings

Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne

The Aquila Alabastro Classical Guitar Strings deliver the classic tonal warmth of traditional gut strings with the modern benefits of synthetic materials. Crafted using Aquila’s proprietary Supernylgut, these strings provide a prompt attack, excellent projection, and superior intonation stability—qualities long sought by classical guitarists. Designed to overcome the common drawbacks of gut strings, such as fragility, inconsistency, and cost, the Alabastro series is a reliable and sonically rich choice for discerning musicians.

The treble and bass strings are both made with Supernylgut for a cohesive tonal connection, while the basses feature a silver-plated copper winding over a high-strength multifilament core. This combination enhances brightness beyond standard nylon strings and maintains tonal clarity even in changing humidity. Available in light, normal, and superior tension variants, the Alabastro set caters to a wide range of playing styles. Whether you're performing or recording, these strings offer the timeless sound of gut with the resilience and tuning accuracy of modern innovation.

Features:

  • Supernylgut construction replicates gut string tone with modern stability and durability

  • Brighter tone than nylon, without the sharpness of fluorocarbon

  • Silver-plated copper wound bass strings with multifilament core for strength and warmth

  • Available in Light, Normal, and Superior tensions to suit individual playing styles

  • High intonation stability and low moisture absorption for consistent performance
