Uke Logic string sets are made from high quality "super fluorocarbon" aka Super-Carbon. A high-density formula of fluorocarbon that is tonally different from the average fluorocarbon ukulele string.

Physically enjoyable to play, they allow your fingers to glide effortlessly and silently. The soft tension Low G has a pleasant warm tone, with a comfortable light tension that is a welcome upgrade for players who find the average fluorocarbon string to be stiff, hard, and painful on their fingertips.

The Hard tension Low G has a heavier gauge* and increased tension, this allows it to feel more balanced with the tension of the other 3 strings on your Ukulele. Players comment that the string does not overpower the rest of the set and is a good choice for players who feel that the average unwound low G feels too "floppy" or drones on too long and overpowers the other strings. It also significantly reduces fret buzz compared to the average unwound low G.

*At a diameter of 0.042" the Hard tension Low G is larger than the average low G string and may require a slight adjustment to your nut slot for a comfortable fit depending on the instrument.

 

  • Warm tone but still retaining brightness, not "metallic" or harsh sounding
  • Light tension for easier play and less hand fatigue / Hard tension for a more balanced tension
  • High density

 

STRING MEASUREMENTS:

Soft Tension Low G: 0.036"

Hard Tension Low G: 0.042"

HELPFUL INFORMATION:

  • These strings are long enough to be used with any scale length.
  • These strings can also be used on Baritone Ukuleles as a Low D string. The longer baritone scale length balances out the tension when tuned down to D.
  • The Clear or Pink color options have no effect on the function or tone of the string, they are strictly cosmetic options for your pleasure.

Original raw materials made in JAPAN, formulated and designed for the ukulele by Uke Logic in HAWAII, USA.

POLISHED GOLD ALLOY LOW G OPTION:

POLISHED GOLD ALLOY, also known as the "smooth-wound" Low G is an excellent choice for players looking for an easy touch and an alternative to the average noisy, scratchy metal-wound string.

The Gold Alloy is a round-wound string that has been polished to smooth out the ridges on the outer layer, hence, "smooth-wound". This allows your fingers to glide almost effortlessly with minimal noise making them great for recording and performing live. With a warm, balanced tone, and comfortable tension, it is no wonder this is one of the most popular Low G strings on the market.

At a diameter of 0.030" it fits comfortably in most nut slots originally cut for high G strings with little to no adjustments necessary.

This string has a wide range of benefits and advantages to traditional round-wound metal strings:

  • Less finger noise
  • Smaller diameter without loss of sustain
  • Warm, sustaining tone, not "metallic" or harsh sounding

Arrives packaged with protective VCI (Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor) coated paper to preserve and protect the string from rust and corrosion before use.

Setup Options

 

Current Turnaround Time: Amount of time it takes before shipment-

Full Setup: 10-14 Business Days

Basic Quality Control: 2-3 Days

BASIC QUALITY CONTROL covers inspecting the instrument for any major defects that would have been missed by the factory and any faults in construction that could potentially damage or limit the functionality of the instrument over time. Any defective instruments are rejected and replaced.  We make sure that each Ukulele meets the basic standard for a brand new instrument and will be ready to play once you receive it. A final cleanup is also included after inspection before packing and shipment.

Full Setup - FREE for all Ukuleles $399 and over / $20.00 for Ukuleles from $300-399 / $30.00 for Ukuleles Under $300


Includes:


-Overall QC evaluation: To find defects in construction as well as to get an overall view of the instrument and note the areas that need extra attention and adjustment during the setup.

-Saddle Adjustment: The height of the saddle is lowered to reduce the distance between the strings and the fretboard, making it easier to play than the factory setup, especially higher up the fretboard.

-Nut Slot Adjustment: The depth, width, and angle of the nut slots are adjusted to create a more comfortable playing experience especially on the lower frets.

-Fret Dressing: After adjusting the nut and saddle heights, high spots in the fretboard or uneven frets will potentially cause fret buzz, dead spots, or other unwanted problems. The frets are filed to create a more consistent level across the fretboard. We then crown the frets to return their rounded curvature back to the top of each fret creating a clear contact point for each string. We then smooth and polish the frets and condition the fingerboard to bring them back to new condition.

-Final Cleanup: We always do a final overall cleanup of the instrument to make sure it is in new condition and ready to play before it is prepared for shipment.

Rush Setup & Delivery - Additional $50.00
The RUSH SETUP AND DELIVERY service is for customers who would still like to receive everything included in the full setup but on a shorter time frame. One of our setup technicians will work overtime outside of normal business hours to complete the setup within 2-3 days of the order being placed and immediately hand it over to the shipping department for packing and shipment. The $50.00 rush charge is in addition to the cost of the full setup.
