Adel,
There is a raft of information on these forums about all brands of strings. Use the "Search" function and input Aquila, or LaBella, or Pyramid
etc.
Regards,
Greg

If you like Shargi Music (Om Kalthoom, Abdelwahab..etc) you should like Aquila strings 
My best choice is strings is Pyramid Lute strings
2nd best would be Aquila

really? you like more pyramid?
I have some pyramid set´s, but I don´t think they are so good.
I think that they are more cathegories in the same brand , becuase those that I have, , are not so good.
I have thise one taht says
"Pyramid
Made in Germany
plain Nylon, white (or black)"
and there is a drawing of a arabic musulman moské. One in orange and other in yellow.
those are the same one that you are telling me najmed?
thanks!!

what you described are the pyramid oud strings,
I think he means the pyramid lute strings which are originally for the europian lute, but are customized for oud string length and pitch.
I think they are what udi Tanrikorur used, and what Mr.Dalkilic still uses for his ouds.

Hi, thanks for writing,
I didn´t saw the word "lute". Thank you for teaching me to read!! hahaha
any way, who are those people that you are telling me? can I listen them playing? do you have some samples. Sorry about my ignorance, but it´s the
first time I hear those names.
I must buy some pyramid strings for lute and then see what happens.
see you!

udi Cinucen is one of the greatest turkish oud players of the century, with a very very distinct style of playing.
Mr. Dalkilic used to make the ouds he used at some point in his career, and still makes wonderful ouds. As for samples of udi Cinuncen, I think there
are some here on this forum. If you can't find them, I'll see what I can upload

Pyramid is the best strings out in the market , you have to know what to order. The Historik sets is the best .
Not LaBella , Aquilla or any. Try searching for the Pyramid Posted by MIke a whiloe go or by me.Regards Samir.
PS each set wells for $55.00 from Pyramid Germany.
