Who are Augustine?
Albert Augustine is a legend in the classical guitar world. Founded in 1947, his company manufactured the world's first nylon classical guitar strings - stronger, louder and more reliable than the animal gut-based strings used previously. The invention, in which the guitarist Segovia (a tenant and neighbour of the Augustines) and the plastics company DuPont took a part, secured the future of the Augustine company. Augustine strings are now used by professional guitarists around the world.
