Augustine Regal Red Classical Guitar String Set

The Set

Back in the 1940's, the luthier Albert Augustine and André Segovia were responsibles of the first Nylon string set for the Classical Guitar, before that all the guitar strings were made with animal guts. Since then it's the favorite brand for a lot of classical guitar players. 

The Regal Red set a very good set from Augustine. We like this set because it sounds bright and clear close to the carbon strings without loosing the body and warmth of the nylon strings. 

The Trebles

Regal is the treble model, it's a high tension set with bright, powerful and projected sound that conserves all the good qualities of the Nylon strings: sweetnes, warmth and expresiveness. Compared to the other Augustine sets (Classic and Imperial) this are the brighter ones.

The Basses

All the Augustine sets have the same basses, just varies by tension (Red are normal tension, Blue are high tension)*. Why change something that's a good product, excellent quality, low priced and best seller, there's simply no reason to...

This particular set combines the high tension trebles (Regal) with a medium tension basses (Red) giving the player a break on the tension and effort to play with the cantability and power of high tension trebles.

*There're also a black-low tension bass set and a gold one (gold colored winding) but those are not part of our catalog.
