Your acoustic guitar will never be quite the same. Cleartone acoustic strings start off 
with premium 80/20 bronze construction. The award winning and patented Cleartone 
Treatment is next. At only one micron thin, there is no flaking, no slippery feel or 
dampened tone. All strings in a set feature the Cleartone Treatment for long life 
and pure tone without compromises. 

  

AQUILA RED SERIES GUITALELE 43CM E-E

Vibrating string length: 42-43 cm

A unique look and a strong, consistent sound: but why?

Following the natural laws of physics, in order to reach lower frequencies an increase of diameter of 
the string is needed, but this increase will make the sound quality get worse and worse because of the 
internal dampening of the string. This translates into a duller sound, less brightness and responsiveness, 
following this practical law: the thicker the string, the duller the sound.

Our revolutionary approach never introduced before us  changes the specific weight of each treble string 
in order to compensate this loss of acoustical properties. This way, the diameter variation among each 
string is considerably smaller, allowing the instrument to sound brighter, more powerful and more responsive 
through the entire range of the fretboard, especially over the 12th fret. The strings also keep a better 
intonation thanks to the reduced diameter variations. Until today, this result was reached only with harps, 
where the scale of the strings is continuously varied in order to limit the dampening issue.

The GUILELE/GUITALELE RED SERIES sets provide superior performance over traditional strings, and suits 
all musicians who love clear, sharp sounds and powerful voicing across the full scale of the instrument. 
You never heard a sound like this before, simply because before it did not exist.

Thunder-reds is a set made with three different types of synthetic elastomer. In the third and 
fourth strings, the density of the elastomeric material is also increased by adding micronized 
metal copper powder during the extrusion phase.
This technological solution allows for the same working tension to have smaller diameters, greater 
volume and sustain than any type of polyurethane and silicone rubber strings available on the market. 
The Thunder-reds ensure fast and stable intonation. Thanks to the metallic powder there is also a great 
slipperiness of the fingers on the strings.

String color: dark burnt red

These innovative bass strings use copper instead of stiff metals like steel or nickel, resulting in a richer 
acoustic performance due to the higher density of copper. Additionally, the strings feature a bioplastic 
monofilament core called ‘Sugar‘, which has excellent acoustic performance and is produced exclusively by Aquila 
on a global scale.

Revolutionize Your Sound with Our Groundbreaking Wound Bass Strings
These strings are truly innovative for at least two reasons. Firstly, they do not use metals like steel or nickel, 
that are stiff, but instead they use pure copper that is softer and has higher density and result in richer acoustic 
performance. In fact higher the density, better the sound. Secondly, these strings feature a bioplastic 
monofilament core called ‘Sugar‘, which is exclusively produced by Aquila on a global scale. Sugar has been 
proven to have superior acoustic performance compared to other plastic materials, as evidenced by laboratory 
measurements.

This set is characterized by a different construction system than usual, which uses a special aerospace-grade 
multifilament instead of the common nylon multifilament. Varnished copper is used for the coating, which is 
hypoallergenic and less noisy under the fingers.

Pure copper replaces stiffer steel, nickel and phosphor bronze: these materials have a lower specific weight 
than natural copper. The higher the specific weight the better the acoustic performance
