Oud strings in Atlanta


Hey everybody,

I'll be in Atlanta for a couple of days and would like to buy some labella oud strings. Does anyone know a shop where I can buy the strings? Im from Germany and I know the strings are way cheaper in the US.

Thanks

LaBella strings are pretty common, I would recommend calling some guitar stores and seeing if they have some.

I walked into my local guitar shop a few weeks ago and asked for our strings. The owner tilted his head to the side like a dog hearing a high pitched noise. Then I had to explain the oud. In this case my support of local business was strictly educational. Oh well.

Of course, many guitar shops won't carry any, but a surprising number of shops will have a few sets. D'addario is most common, but LaBella is not far behind. I've even seen Thomastik! Mainly I think because those brands all make well-known guitar strings.
