La Bella 700C Cuatro de Puerto Rico Strings

The La Bella 700C strings are made for the Cuatro de Puerto Rico, the ten-string, five-course instrument that holds the distinction of being Puerto Rico's national instrument. The Cuatro plays both rhythmic and melodic roles in jibaro music and has become a symbol of Puerto Rican cultural identity, appearing in everything from folk festivals to contemporary compositions.

This string set is designed for the Cuatro's specific tuning and doubled-course arrangement, delivering the bright, full sound that the instrument is known for. The balanced tension ensures clean intonation and responsive playability across all five courses. La Bella's commitment to Caribbean and Latin American folk instruments means Cuatro players can find purpose-built strings from a reputable manufacturer rather than cobbling together mismatched sets. The 700C gives your Cuatro the voice it deserves.
