Augustine Regal Classical Guitar Strings
Augustine's Regal classical guitar strings are known for their bright, round trebles and rich, warm basses.
All sets in the Regal series have the same extra high tension, clear Cristal nylon trebles. The treble strings are each .02mm larger in diameter than their counterparts in Augustine's Imperial series, and they're a bit higher in tension. These differences make them punchier, with a louder attack and less sustain. They're also brighter than trebles in Augustine's Classic series.
The Regal sets are differentiated by the tension in their bass strings. The Regal Blue basses are high tension, Regal Red and Regal Gold are medium tension, and Regal Black are low tension. The basses are all silver plated except for the gold set, which is gold plated, providing a warmer sound.
