Thomastik-Infeld Oud Strings

Hi
Does anyone use Thomastik-Infeld oud strings? I wanted to order a set from juststrings.com, but they have 4 different types of oud strings. Does anyone know which pair comes with a wound 3rd string? They sell one set with a plain G, one set with a wound G, do they mean D (3rd string)?

Hey Oudman,

You want the TOI_315AE set. The "A" is for Arabic if I remember correctly. That is the set with the wound thirds.

Good luck,
Mike
