Classical guitar - Aquila Seta

This natural silk core basses can eventually be paired with the normal tension Ambra 2000 trebles (150C), recreating in this way the old “Seta” set.

These basses of this set are in real silk floss, which, being naturally produced by an insect, cannot be steadily regular in their gauge. As a consequence, it may happen that the bass strings at 12th fret may be flat or sharp to a certain extent. The limit accepted by Aquila Corde is of 8 cents more or less. Beyond this value, the string is considered non-compliant and it will be replaced.

Besides, we would like to remind that the degree of compensation introduced by the inclination of the bone of the bridge – which is calibrated to the modern strings with a core of Nylon- may not apply to strings with a core of natural silk.
