{"product_id":"aquila-5-string-classical-banjo-1b-with-nylgut-strings","title":"Aquila 5-String Classical Banjo 1B with Nylgut Wetsuits and Bio-Plastic Strings","description":"Until the middle of the 20th century, Banjo strings were made from gut, a material that had been in use for thousands of years and was characterised by a good promptness of attack combined with a particularly warm tonal performance: substantially different, therefore, from that of nylon.\nThese Nylgut wetsuits are of modern design; in fact, they have larger diameters and relative tension values than the average of the historical wetsuits that were in use during the so-called ‘classic period’ of the banjo (1870-1940).\nThe 4th string on sets 1B and 2B for Old Style Banjo is unwound. They are made up of a recently discovered bio-plastic called Sugar, that has been loaded with metallic powders.","brand":"Aquila","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51881790275869,"sku":"58135PT","price":17.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/2092\/9309\/files\/58135PT.webp?v=1781595144","url":"https:\/\/scarlettmusic.com.au\/products\/aquila-5-string-classical-banjo-1b-with-nylgut-strings","provider":"Scarlett Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
