Hello

1) I have a friend that will be in NY around march-april, and she's going to get me some turkish oud strings and rishas for me.
It would rule if I could also get in the same store the following:
Iranian santur hammers
Saz bridge

2) What are the best brands of turkish oud strings?
Labella seem expensive and the package looks good.

3) I already have tortoise, cow horn, pyramid (white) and the common rishas they sell you in turkey. What else should I try? Mizrite, tortite...?

Thanks a lot for the help. Very appreciated!
