Does anyone have a favorite on-line source for Pyramid oud strings?

I've gotten mine directly from Max Junger at http://www.pyramid-saiten.de/. He wasn't taking credit cards but seemed OK to take US checks and processed the order quickly. Even with shipping the cost was quite reasonable.

Many thanks. I'm using Aquila nylgut for my floating bridge oud, and it is fine, except for the highest treble string (c), which lacks resonance and sustain...so I'm going to try Pyramid only for that string, to find out if it will "sing" more.

Actually, I've stopped using plain nylons altogether. I either use Nylgut or PVF. If you search the forum, I think it was Hank Levin who was selling sets of just PVF trebles. I was very pleased with them.
