I thought I would try these strings based on comments on this forum and the reputation of Daniel Mari. Besides, my strings needed changing.
I have to say Im very impressed. These strings have an authentic voice, the bass's are precision manufactured, very finely wound and they sing. The
nylons are diferent from any I've come across. They too have lyrical quality. This set is Arabic low tension of professional standard and I recommend
trying them. Its hard to describe string sound exactly but put it this way; If the Arabic oud could choose its own strings rather than the player
choose them, then I reckon the ouds may well opt for this kind of sound, they seem to bring out the instruments innate qualities. Dont be put off by
the low price, they are a high quality product, easily on par with the very best available. You can get them from the above link, scroll down to find.
As our own Rojaros on this forum put it, "You may be surprised". C
