Aquila Red Series Mandolin Strings for historical brilliance

Redefining historical mandolin tone, the Aquila 1M - Red Series, Historical Neapolitan Mandolin String Set offers a brighter, more powerful sound for authentic Neapolitan and Baroque instruments. This set is engineered for those seeking both traditional aesthetics and advanced string technology. The Red Series is made in Italy and is not intended for 19th-century, metal-string, or country mandolins.

Innovative copper powder design sets it apart

By increasing density with copper powder in the Nylgut material, this model minimizes diameter changes. Strings differ in shade, resulting in a consistent, clear tone through every register.

• String Count: 8 — configured for traditional Neapolitan/baroque mandolins
• Standard historical mandolin tuning is supported with GG DD AA EE
• Material: Red Copper-infused Nylgut — offers modern resilience and a classic touch
• For the G-string, red anodized copper winding delivers enhanced low-end clarity
• Medium/regular tension produces a natural response without added thickness
