In 1913, brothers Olinto & Emilio Mari arrived in New York bringing their family craft to the States. Over the years, the brothers shaped the landscape of the string industry with their innovative designs. Every set is manufactured using a perfect combination of traditional methods and latest technologies to produce a superior string. The oud is the classical short- necked, bowl-backed fretless lute of the Arabic world. With 11 or 12 strings in 5 or 6 courses, it is usually tuned d'd'/aa/ee/BB/AA/G. The OU80 set can also be tuned CFAdgc' for certain Arabic ouds.

We will list it today. Product code: aoo-113 I can recommend it **Q: which is the best oud tuner?** A: Someone with perfect pitch has the potential to be a great tuner. OK, seriously, an app on my works in a pinch. But, I have a snark and it fits my needs. They are Amazon Choice in the $10-15 range. The only issue is clipping on the end of the peg box. Some ouds are easier for the tuner to clamp on to and stay on than others. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality & deep voice *by A***B on July 29, 2025* Really deep voice and good quality ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good quality! *by K***S on November 8, 2023* Nice sound and last long ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good strings, good value *by R***T on August 11, 2017* good strings, good price.
