A set designed around the oud tradition and the musician’s expressiveness
This string set for Arabic oud is intended for musicians seeking a subtle balance between tradition, precision, and musicality. The natural gut treble strings provide an organic playing feel, with a smooth attack and beautifully rich tone. The gold-plated wound strings complete the set with warm projection, well-defined bass, and an even response across the entire range.
Developed with Rabih AbouKhalil, this set was designed for Arabic ouds with a 63.5 cm scale length. It is particularly well suited to players looking for an expressive tonal palette, equally adapted to melodic playing and the subtle nuances characteristic of the Oriental repertoire. Its construction with doubled courses on the main strings enhances harmonic richness and provides the playing comfort expected from this type of instrument.
