I like the sound of both the Worth and the Aquila. In my opinion, when strummed, the Worth strings sounded brighter and projected a bit more than the Aquila's. On the other hand, when fingerpicked the Aquila's sounded brighter and projected a bit more. I am primarily a fingerpicker on the Uke so I stick with my Aquila's. I also dislike the dark color of the Worth browns as I have difficulty seeing the strings. I am also primarily a Baritone uke player. When I do play my Tenor ukes I always play low G as I much prefer linear tuning as opposed to reentrant tuning. BTW your playing is absolutely wonderful and I enjoyed it immensely. I will be picking up the Acacia version as soon as it is available to me in the states.
Matt, I was just listening to you while faffing about, so not paying a great deal of attention. But, when you switched to the Worth browns, it jumped out of the laptop! Sometimes strings really do make a big difference.
Interesting - there was nothing that made the ukulele stand out with Aquilas, but with Worth Browns it really chimed. What a difference a string change can make to me! I also preferred the high G, but I was biased going in as I’ve found I don’t personally like the feel of the Worth Brown low G.
Looks beautiful 🤩 .. I do like the worth strings in High G they make it sing so nicely even though I’m a Low G freak 😂🤣… looking forward to the demo for the passive pickup .. 😁😜🤩🦋
It looks really nice…& like another commenter, I prefer the Worth High G which is unusual as I love a Low G! It seems to ring out beautifully but I don’t suppose I’d really mind which set of Worth Browns were on one if I was buying! Big No-No to Aquila I’m afraid! Good demo Matt..thanks! 👍🏻😁
I thought it would be made for low G but I really liked the high G to be honest. I do normally but thought this might lend itself to low G but I love the high G clarity.
Yes, I agree… Aquilas are not what fits these ukuleles best but I must say, that on the second melody you played, sounded a bit 20th to me, I really liked the muffled sound of the Aquilas better.
I’m very pleased with mine, thanks Matt, and the Worth strings are lovely now they’ve stopped stretching and stay in tune.

Acacia look really nice. I will order as well just from shop in Southampton as it is local to me.
Worth brown sound beautiful
It sounds quite good and more affordable...
I like the string change with the High G as well. It fits the ukulele. Thank you for the introduction and sound samples. Always appreciated.

Loved the background explanation. And then the demos! Thanks.
Great comparison and well done for matching up the uke with ideal strings. Have a great week
Thankyou Matt!
Good comparison Matt, thank you.
Very good value it seems. Cheers 🥃👍

I agree with you with this uke - and subsequently tried it with a Fremont low G. Still high G for me though I think!

I have plans for that and a fremont low G - if I can hang onto them long enough!
Hope you do as looking forward to seeing this 😁🦋

Cheers,
Fabio
