An expressive timbre, from the bridge to the soundhole
Designed for the Afghan Rabab, this Aquila Sugar set stands out with a clear, bright, and fast sonic signature, while maintaining a smooth and musical playing feel. Where some fluorocarbon strings may seem stiffer in expression, the Sugar strings offer a generous vibrato and a marked timbre variation as the right hand moves from the bridge toward the soundhole. Laboratory tests indicate superior sound power and sustain (respectively +18% and +24%) compared to fluorocarbon strings, resulting in a more present, more singing, and more lively instrument in the acoustic mix.
