Hi everybody!

I have a question about Aquila strings on stock instruments:

does the model changes between brands?

let me explain: when I bought, one year ago, an Ohana SK38, the stock strings were New Nylgut, with a matte white colour and extremely bright.
I liked them, and by far the NN are still my favourite Aquila.

at the time I had experience with a Makala Dolphin, gifted to my sister, and it came with Super Nylgut strings (pearl white colour, mellower and more flexible).

in the last month I bought a couple of Kala SMHS (both returned due to lack of quality control...) and they both had Super Nylgut.

the Kala site only mentioned "Aquila premium strings" or something similar, and even the Ohana site is vague.

considering that they are very different, both in sound and feel, when I look at videos on youtube I'm not sure about which is which.

if I look at Ohana's videos, are they Super Nylgut or New Nylgut?

did they changed the stock strings on Kala at a certain point?

other brands using Aquila as stock strings which model are using?
