Aquila 61O Nylgut Iraqi Tuning ff-cc-gg-DD-AA-F Oud Strings

AQUILA 61O

11 String Oud Set - Iraqi Tuning

Full Set – ff; cc; gg; DD; AA; F

These sets are made in standard tension (3.4 Kg average for each string). The treble strings are made up of a high-performance bioplastic called "Sugar", which was discovered and developed by Aquila. The wound strings are made up of a red copper winding while the fourth strings of the Iraqi set are wound with a grey colored metal blend. The balanced tone and feel of these Oud strings are unique to Aquila. The improvements made in the materials and construction of this set also helps to minimize the squeaks and chirps that might be caused by the fingers rubbing against the strings.

String conversion: Sugar gauge = Nylon gauge x .91
