The La Bella C80 strings are made for the Charango, the small ten-string, five-course instrument that's central to the folk music of Bolivia, Peru, and the broader Andean region. Traditionally made with an armadillo shell body, the Charango produces a bright, ringing sound that's instantly recognizable in Andean folk ensembles.These nylon strings are designed for the Charango's specific tuning and small scale length, providing the correct tension for its doubled courses. The bright, clear tone projects well and supports the rapid strumming and tremolo techniques that define Andean folk guitar styles. Finding proper Charango strings outside of South America has historically been a challenge, and La Bella's C80 set addresses that need with professionally manufactured strings from a trusted name. Essential for any Charango player who wants consistent quality and authentic tone.
