I just want to give some advice..My brother has a M Fadel Oud that was purchased years ago..And to this day we believed that the Oud was a Lemon due to the dead sound of the Oud..It came with some Lute Strings and sounded Ok..But since then we have tried all different kind of sets and man the Oud just didnt sound like a professional Oud at all..Thanx to this site and meeting new people..I thought i would get some Custom Strings from Jameel..And all i can say is WoW..To this day we would only appreciate the beauty of the looks..But man these Strings made a new Oud come out..It is the nicest sounding instrument we have heard or played..We never knew Strings could make such a big difference..We got the Pyramid Lute custom tuned FADGCF..Jameel is very fast and very helpful..He makes it easy to get the right Strings..And it's a must for custom Strings if you have a Oud made for FADGCF..
