Augustine produces 4 different series of classical guitar strings

The best known Classic sets (black, gold, red and blue) have identical nylon trebles in normal tension, the sets differ in the different tensions of the wound bass strings (black = low, gold = medium, red = medium, blue = high). This logic is continued in all subsequent series.

All GOLD labelled strings have gold-coloured brass-plated copper wound bass strings at medium-low tension

Classic Red Label normal/medium tension

Standard treble strings in normal tension

Silver-plated bass strings in medium tension
