Oud strings

Edward6311 - 8-7-2019 at 12:55 AM

I am looking to purchase 4 sets of 11 Oud strings. I have attempted to contact Brian with Oudstrings.com which I have used in the past and the strings I received we’re great! but have not yet received a response? 3 Ouds are 58.5cm and 1 Oud is 60cm. All to be tuned to (Low to high) DGGAADDGGCC. I prefer DGGAADD to be copper wound and GGCC to be nylon.
Maybe medium tension?

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Edward

Man, it seems strange that Brian didn't get back to you....I'd try him again, he's always been very responsive.
Good luck.

Regards,
Paul

Hello Edward,

have a look in my shop. I created a lot of custom sets for different scales, tunings and tensions. All the sets can be found in the following category:
aoud - Saz - Kanung string sets

Also I created a file about tensions and my numbering system
here

Best regards
Matthias
