An Augustine Bass with a Strong Character
Since 1947, Augustine strings have built their reputation on a rich sound and a true variety of timbres. The A "Blue" High Tension string is aimed at guitarists seeking a tighter response and clear articulation, while maintaining a musical and singing bass.
To refine your balance, the Augustine range also allows you to mix basses and trebles according to your preferences: Classic trebles (normal tension nylon), Imperial (medium/high premium nylon), Regal (high premium nylon), and basses Rouge (medium), Blue (high), Black (low) in silver-plated nylon, as well as Gold (medium/high brass-plated nylon). There are also Paragon Rouge (medium carbon) and Paragon Blue (high carbon).
