CLASSICAL GUITAR AMBRA 2000 SETS
Up to the middle of the 20th century, the only available strings for guitar
were gut strings for Trebles and silk wound strings for basses: their acoustical
performance was different from that of modern Guitar- setup. The salient
characteristics of the past setups were: a marked tonal presence, response and
brightness typical of the top gut string (certainly superior to plain nylon and
in some respects closer to fluocarbon strings) while the basses, on the other
hand, possessed an exquisitely vocal quality, i.e. not so bright as, and with
less sustain than, modern wound on nylon strings and more fundamental heavy. Our
Ambra set was developed in order to best re-create, by means of modern synthetic
materials, a different feel. This set was conceived for one grade of tension and
consists of -gut coloured Super NylgutŪ for Trebles, while for
the basses (silvered copper wires wound on NylgutŪ
multifilament core) we employed a different balance between wire and core in
order to obtain warm and deep performances
