About this product

The Aquila 23U is a New Nylgut string set for baritone ukulele in GCEA tuning with a high G, pitched G4-C4-E4-A4 in Aquila's notation. All four strings are plain (unwound) New Nylgut, the synthetic material Aquila developed in its own laboratory to give a singing, gut-like tone with clear attack.

  • Set: 23U Baritone High G, New Nylgut
  • Tuning: GCEA, high G
  • Strings: 4, all unwound
  • A (1st): 0.62 mm (.024"), 8.06 kg tension
  • E (2nd): 0.80 mm (.031"), 7.53 kg
  • C (3rd): 0.95 mm (.037"), 6.69 kg
  • G (4th): 0.67 mm (.026"), 7.47 kg

Like gut, New Nylgut can be cut by sharp edges, so Aquila advises checking that the nut and bridge are smooth before fitting. The strings take time to settle fully; pulling each one firmly sideways and retuning, until it holds pitch, speeds this up. For DGBE baritone tuning, Aquila's New Nylgut set is the 21U.
