La Bella 17 strings are specifically designed for the Classical and Minstrel Banjo developed in the 19th century. These instruments were originally strung with gut strings. Gut strings are however quite expensive and fragile making them impractical for some uses. La Bella 17 Banjo strings feature high-quality rectified nylon and silver-plated wound strings resulting in an ideal tone for the classical banjo repertory and traditional folk music without the reliability problems.
