7 courses tuning

Hi,
I recently an iraki-style oud in Egypt. I would like to use 13 strings instead of 11 but I can't find any 13-strg set here in Canada.

Does anybody knows what size of string I should use to be able to tune it CFADGCF ?

Thank you very much,
Philippe

Hi Philippe,

I use 0.48mm PVF for the thiteenth pair (F) on my 7 courses ouds which I string with Pyramid sets. The result is very nice.
