A Historical Benchmark in the World of Classical Strings
Since 1947, Augustine has established itself as a reference for classical guitarists. Decades later, the brand maintains a strong reputation thanks to strings known for their rich harmonics and their ability to adapt to the personality of each guitar.
Refine Your Balance: Tension, Tone, and Response
This high E string in black nylon, with low tension, is aimed at musicians seeking a softer feel, quick vibration response, and optimized playing comfort, especially for dynamics, legato, and extended playing. Augustine's approach is simple: test and let your ears decide. You can thus create your ideal combination by pairing a bass string with a set of trebles, depending on the desired projection, brightness, and resistance.
