Aquila® Thunderbrown U•BASS® Strings

Model: AQ-TB-4

$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.

    Perfect 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.

    Love the Thundering Thunderbrowns!

    I bought the Thunderbrowns after the Silver Rumblers proved to be a great disappointment to me, since I wanted to upgrade from the Thunderblacks. (The Thunderblacks that originally came with my U-Bass sounded a lot better and louder than the Silver Rumblers in my case, but I digress.) I must say the the Thunderbrowns are indeed a worth upgrade from the Thunderblacks. They soundfantastic on my Nomad Acoustic-Electric U-Bass. I am thrilled. There is an initial breaking-in period where the feel of the strings are concerned, as the -Browns have more texture than the -Blacks. But I've been playing with them for an hour after putting them on, and I'm already feeling a difference with use. Excellent strings!

    Love these strings

    Smaller diameter than the black and less wobbly. Tighter string tension, a little bit of texture, love them
