Augustine Classic Gold Strings (Normal Tension Nylon Trebles/Medium Tension Brass Basses)

The only Augustine strings to deviate from the original silver winding that Albert perfected, Gold basses feature brass wire that imbues a flush, shimmering tone often preferred by flamenco and jazz players. Made in New York, USA.

Augustine Strings' legacy of innovation began over 75 years ago when our founder, Albert Augustine, successfully created the first nylon guitar string at the request of legendary Spanish classical guitarist, Andrs Segovia.

As the inventor and producer of the gold standard of nylon guitar strings, Augustine continues to advance the sonic possibilities of our instrument today with the introduction of the crystal nylon Imperial and Regal lines and the fluorocarbon Paragon sets - all strings of the highest quality, made in the USA, and designed to offer guitarists a full range of options to bring out the best sound and playability from their instrument.
