La Bella B50 Bandolin Strings

The La Bella B50 strings are designed for the Bandolin, the Brazilian version of the mandolin that's central to Choro music and other traditional Brazilian instrumental forms. The Bandolin's bright, articulate voice carries the melody in Choro ensembles, playing rapid, virtuosic lines that demand responsive, well-made strings.

These strings are built to match the Bandolin's tuning and scale length, providing the correct tension for its paired courses. The bright, clear tone and fast response support the dazzling technique that Choro demands, from rapid scalar passages to delicate tremolo. Finding proper Bandolin strings can be a challenge outside of Brazil, and La Bella's B50 set offers a reliable, professionally manufactured option. If you play Bandolin for Choro, Samba, or contemporary Brazilian music, these strings give you the foundation for great tone and easy playability.
