Finger-style guitarists favor La Bella's Silk & Steel strings for their soft touch and sweet tone. The medium tension 710M set is made with silver-plated copper wire, hand wound over a middle layer of pure Italian silk filament and a steel core.
These strings have less tension than standard strings wound with steel, bronze, or brass.
La Bella makes the strings in the USA with American wire.
