Our NGH strings are manufactured in New Nylgut®, a material which represents a good synthesis of the mechanical and acoustical properties of nylon and of PVF (carbon) strings. These strings are characterized by their gut colour, have the same density and acoustical qualities similar of natural gut (gauges to be used are the same of gut). New Nylgut® can be considered the first “synthetic” version of gut.

The main feature of the NGH strings is undoubtedly the impassable tuning stability to changes in humidity and temperature, considerably superior to gut and Nylon as well.

These strings are available in three colours: natural, red and black.

With a transparent look that resembles crystal glass, SHN strings are made using a blend of a recently discovered Italian bio-plastic derived from sugar-cane, that we call ‘Sugar’.
The sound of these strings is clearly brilliant, clean and prompt, and provide great acoustic power.

Laboratory tests showed that SHN strings have a projection of sound (measured in Joules) and a sustain respectively 18% and 24% more than fluorocarbon strings.

These strings have both the sweetness and sing-ability of gut, and, at the same time, the clearness and promptness of attack typical of Fluorocarbon

Even though the surface is extremely smooth, the grip on the fingers is remarkable; in other words, they will never feel slippery.

The SHN strings have a gut-like color (light yellowish brown) and are also available in red (SHR type) or blue (SHB type).
