Aquila® Thunderbrown U•BASS® Strings
$39
The newest revolutionary U•BASS® string design from Aquila, the Aquila® Thunderbrown offers players a brand new playing experience and tone, distinct from other pure elastomer strings:
- The strings ensure a perfect glide of the fingers of the left hand
- The diameter is reduced to levels comparable to normal coated acoustic bass strings
- They are made for the first time starting from bio-elastomers of vegetable origin and not from petroleum derivatives
- The metal added in micronized form is minimal in the first string and maximum in the fourth: this translates into a perfect acoustic and timbral homogeneity of the frame
- They do not show any 'sausaging effect' over time (strings pulled hard with the hands reduce their diameter in a stable form)
- The acoustic power is increased, adding to the feasibility of play on a U•BASS® without amplification
- String tension has been increased compared to that of Aquila® Thundergut, Thunderblack and Thundered.
- JDJames D G.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 months agoPerfect for Ashbory short scale bass
I recently purchased a 1990s Ashbory bass, the first designed short scale bass, but has huge antique silicon strings and can be a challenge to play. I did some research and decided to try these Thunderbrowns, and what a huge improvement in sound quality, playability and intonation. They are a bit expensive so I’ll have to see about their durability, but so far it’s a well earned 5-stars. I might try the Thunderblack and Nygut at some point, but it’s hard to imagine they will surpass these.

Perfect string for base uke. I can jam for hours now and my brain gets tired before muy fingers.
- GSGreg S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoI like them.
Replaced the original Thundergut(?) strings with Thunderbrowns. The browns are a little firmer, less squishy and slide a little better. Maybe a little louder too, when unplugged.
