I've put Aquila Red C strings on four of my ukes with good results so far.
The focus has been on the low G's, but the Red C's could be worth a try for anybody who likes NylGuts on concerts or tenors.
The option is a slightly thinner C string with a good feel, maybe a little less tension and volume.
On my concert Fluke (high G), a NylGut C was the loudest string, the Red is more balanced.
My tenor six-string sounds and feels the best it ever has with a Red C and A.
My concert Epiphone Les Paul and Mitchell MU-70 are benefitting from red C's paired with low G's.
Anybody else using the C's?
