technical question about aquila strings


Good morning

I have tried the light Arabic tension of your strings and I have enjoyed it a lot.

I have 3 questions regarding the oud strings

1) what is the difference between the normal, light and superlight tension in the arabic oud sets ?

2) if I am willing to buy an AQUILA ARABIC OUD STRINGS CFADGC' SET 13O , does the (C FF AA DD) will necessarily be a red copper ? if no witch set will have the red copper ?

3) is there a difference between the aquila arabic oud set 13O, 14O, 15O and 16O ? what does these numbers refer to ?


Thank you

always the light and superlight set is copperwound
the standart set is silverwound

the tuning is different
the numbers are only the item numbers by AQUILA
you find the sets and the tuning in my shop here:
