Unfortunetly I dont have a an awnser for you since Iam not familiar with the turkish tuning. I would just like to guide you a little bit. This advice
and questions forum is the right place to put your question. There was no need to put in the oud making forum and in the buy and sell forum since
there not related. Just informing you in a friendly way. The many people who read trough the forums will be more inclined to awnser your question if
its in the right section of the forums. So there is no need to repeat your posts.
Cheers  Ma3 Salam

A lot of people absolutely love Aquila. Personally, though, on my Turkish ouds, I think LaBellas have a fuller, more beautiful sound. I have far less
experience than a lot of people on this site, but to my ears, the LaBellas are better on Turkish ouds. And, I have been told that they put less
tension on the neck.
What are you using now?
The tuning you mentioned is pretty standard, but it is usually written the other way: EABead (low to high).
