La Bella GP200 Guitarra Portuguesa Strings

The La Bella GP200 strings are made for the Guitarra Portuguesa, the pear-shaped, 12-string instrument that provides the iconic melodic voice of Fado music. This instrument's bright, shimmering sound is inseparable from Portuguese cultural identity, and proper strings are essential for capturing its distinctive singing quality.

These steel strings are designed for the Guitarra Portuguesa's specific tuning and course arrangement, delivering the clear, ringing tone that carries the melancholy beauty of Fado. The balanced tension supports both the rapid tremolo technique and the delicate single-note melodies that characterize the instrument's role. La Bella's GP200 set makes it possible for Guitarra Portuguesa players outside of Portugal to find purpose-built strings from a trusted manufacturer, keeping this beautiful musical tradition alive and sounding its best.
