Hello Oudplayer. If you are looking for a cheep set of strings, I would recommend DAdario or Labella
OU80 strings. If you want a more expensive set of strings, get the Aqila nylgut strings. The nylgut strings can be purchased at http://www.eraydinsazevi.com.tr. The Labellas and/or DAdarios can be purchased at http://www.juststrings.com, or your local music stores such as Sam Ash music. If anyone has anything to add or a question, please post.
