The Korena take

Titanium tenor ukulele strings. Brighter and denser than nylon, for tenor players wanting more cut and clearer note definition.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Tenor ukulele players who get lost in a group jam
  • Cutting through in an unamplified ensemble
  • Swapping in when nylon sounds dull or muddy

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Soprano or concert ukuleles — wrong scale length
  • Players who want a warm, soft nylon tone
  • Anyone who dislikes a slick, slightly stiffer string feel

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Tenor scale

Cut for the longer tenor body. Too long for a soprano and short of ideal on a baritone.

Detail 02

Titanium monofilament

A denser synthetic than nylon. More volume and treble bite, with tighter note definition and less bloom.

Detail 03

Set of four

One full restring. Break a single string and you open a fresh pack for it.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Denser material means higher tension than plain nylon — the neck will feel slightly stiffer.
  2. 02Strings only. No tuner, winder, or clippers in the pack.
  3. 03Allow a few days of stretching and retuning before pitch holds.

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will these fit a concert ukulele?

They are cut for tenor scale. On a concert the extra length has to be trimmed, and tension will read differently than intended.

02How do titanium strings compare to nylon?

Brighter and louder with clearer note separation and higher tension. Nylon is warmer and softer under the fingers.

03Are these actual metal strings?

No. They are a synthetic monofilament, not wire, so they will not damage a ukulele built for nylon-family strings.

04Do these come with a low-G string?

No. This is a standard tenor set in re-entrant high-G tuning. A low-G string is bought separately.
