Looks like a nice oud. What do you think of its sound? What kind of stings you put on the oud? There is no label inside?

It is a nice oud I bought it as a Nahat but it isn’t a Nahat oud as there is a fake label for George Nahat inside. the sound is Arabic , old and
“Rakhim” the strings are D’Addario.

I just realized the 4 small sound "triangles" surrounding the main soundhole. Interesting, Ive never seen that.
