Designed for DGBE tuning, these strings offer superior tuning stability and durability, allowing players to channel the iconic sound of historic ukulele masters with a modern, eco-friendly twist. ## Description The Aquila 21U belongs to Aquila’s new Nylgut series, a series designed to reproduce the promptness of attack and brilliance of timbre that characterize original gut strings. Aquila aimed to design a synthetic string that has the same acoustic properties a gut, but without its typical limitations. The new Nylgut series allows the player to rediscover the sonorities familiar to the great 19th and 20th century ukulele masters, while guaranteeing a stability of tuning higher than that of the even the best gut and nylon strings. Until the mid-20th century Ukuleles were mounted exclusively in gut, a material that had been used for thousand of years and that combines excellent promptness of attack with brilliance of timbre - very different, in other words, from modern nylon strings. ## Features - Designed to reproduce the promptness of attack and brilliance of timbre that characterize original gut strings - Aimed to design a synthetic string that has the same acoustic properties a gut - Allows the player to rediscover the sonorities familiar to the great 19th and 20th century ukulele masters - Guarantees a stability of tuning higher than that of the even the best gut and nylon strings ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00GXMNOXY | | Best Sellers Rank | #19,784 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #148 in Ukulele Accessories | | Body Material Type | Nylon | | Brand Name | Cordoba | | Coating Description | Uncoated | | Color | Original Version | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (838) | | Finish Type | Uncoated | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08052405531308 | | Hand Orientation | Both | | Included Components | Strings only | | Instrument | Ukulele | | Item Type Name | Aquila 21U Baritone Ukulele Strings Set | | Item Weight | 0.01 kg | | Manufacturer | Aquila | | Manufacturer Part Number | 98-040-0820 | | Material Type | Nylon | | Model Name | 21U Baritone Uke Set, DGBE Tuning, Wound DG/Nylgut BE | | Model Number | 98-040-0820 | | Recommended Uses For Product | Making music with a baritone ukulele | | Set Name | 21U Baritone Uke Set | | Sound Profile | Bright and Resonant | | String Gauge | Custom | | String Material Type | Nylgut | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | Null. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Cordoba - **Color:** Original Version - **Instrument:** Ukulele - **String Gauge:** Custom - **String Material Type:** Nylgut ## Images ![Aquila 21U Baritone Ukulele DGBE Nylgut Strings, Low D - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71jB5yMPRSL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I have a kala ka-b and the g string is wearing out. the strings were nylgut but the d and g were wound. which aquilas should i buy?** A: Hi, This 21U listing is the standard Aquila Nylgut Low D Baritone set and contains 2 wound strings and 2 Nylgut strings and so should be perfect.If you'd like to try other Aquila baritone sets, please also view the Aquila Nylgut Baritone High G Tuning – 23U, Aquila Super Nylgut Lava Series Baritone GCEA High G Tuning – 117U, Aquila Super Nylgut Lava Series Baritone DGBE Low D Tuning – 116U or the Aquila Nylgut 'Red Series' Baritone Low D Tuning Set – 89UAlternatively, you could always just go for the single Aquila 49U - Aquila Nylgut Baritone DGBE Tuning Single 3rd G String option.I hope that helps.Best regardsChris **Q: What is the best Baritone Ukulele book for a beginner who knows some music theory?** A: Baritone Ukulele from Scratch by Bruce Emery. He is hands down the best music educator and string teacher that I have come across for ukes, guitars, etc. Believe me as I have bought just about all of them. Bruce marries the theory with the chords, etc. He clearly demonstrates how to play the entire neck of the uke. He has written many books and I have found them all to be the best that I have come across as a beginner/intermediate player. **Q: Any reason you couldn't tune the D (low D) string to high D?** A: Don't do it. You will ruin the strings or warp the fretboard, or both. Only use strings made for the instrument you are using tuned to the pitch they are designed for. Even something as seemingly harmless as putting steel strings on a guitar made for nylon strings can cause ireparable harm to your instrument even if you tune it the same. If you want a high D, try finding a high D set. **Q: Is it possible for a ukelele to have just one fret that creates a nasty buzzing sound?** A: Well, I'm late to the party, lol. Cello and bass players sometimes use very tiny bits of very flat, thin leather or some such. Loosen the string enough to get a bit under it, assuming it'll slide forward some as you tighten. The bit might raise the string just enough to clear the fret, although it will very slightly dampen the sound. I'd try both ends where the string hits and see what works best. ## Frequently Bought Together - Aquila 21U Baritone Ukulele Strings Set - D'Addario Baritone Ukulele Strings, Titanium, EJ87B, 4-String Set, Pack of 1 - Aquila Red Series AQ-89 Baritone Ukulele Strings - Low D - 1 Set of 4 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/4455158-aquila-21u-baritone-ukulele-dgbe-nylgut-strings-low-d](https://www.desertcart.no/products/4455158-aquila-21u-baritone-ukulele-dgbe-nylgut-strings-low-d) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
