set / Classical Guitar 1790-1880 performancesTrebles: NYLGUTBasses: NYLGUT multifilament core/ silver-plated woundAMBRA 800 - 19th Century Guitar set. Synthetic Version of the Gut and Silk 800 string set (1790-1880 musical performances). This set was conceived for one grade of tension and consists of Nylgut - true synthetic gut, - for the trebles, while for the basses (silvered copper wires wound on Nylgut multifilament core) to find the right balance between wire and core, which would recreate exactly the typical sound of the wound silk strings of the time.The new synthetic materialNylgut("synthetic gut") has the same acoustic properties as gut - but without its typical defects - (high cost, limited duration and high instability under varying climatic). Nylgut has precisely these qualities: allowing one, on the one hand, to rediscover the sonorities familiar to the great 19th and 20th century masters; and guaranteeing, on the other, a stability of tuning higher even than that of the best gut and nylon strings.(Up to the middle of the 20th century, the only available strings for guitar were plain gut for the trebles and wound on silk core for the basses: their acoustical performance was quite different from that of modern stringings. The salient characteristics were: a marked timbric presence, response and brightness typical of the gut strings (certainly superior to plain nylon and in some respects closer to PVDF or carbon) 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. The AMBRA set was developed keeping in mind this historical fact.)
