I've seen several wooden bowl cumbus. One was quite old.
I think any of them can take oud strings, even a high pitch set like that.
After all, they were made for metal strings.
As for the sound, that would put it in "oudola" sound territory.
I used to work for a music store that imported many instruments from Cumbus.
Frankly, I like the sound of a cumbus with nylon strings. But it is a personal taste.
