A Modern Aquila Approach to the Flatwound Sound
Aquila has established itself in the string world through its innovations and now applies this expertise to bass with the Flat Spirals and Round Spirals series. The 210U Flat Spirals embody the key idea of the Sugar range: a monofilament core made of "Sugar" material combined with a flatwound copper-based alloy winding. The result: strings with a lively and bright response, well-controlled low end, and enhanced presence, while maintaining the comfortable and consistent feel expected from a flatwound set.
