Description

The Kurschner Professional Oud String Set (Turkish Oud) x 3 Pcs is a pack of three complete Kurschner oud strings sets, made for the Turkish oud. It suits players who restring regularly and want spares ready: one set on the instrument and two in the case.

Made for the Turkish Oud

The sets are made for the Turkish oud. The Arabic oud uses a different tuning and usually a longer scale, so for an Arabic oud choose a string set made for it. Each set arrives in Kurschner’s printed box, ready to fit on a Turkish oud from our oud collection or on your own instrument.

Why Three Sets

Oud strings age together, so most players change a complete set at once to keep every course sounding even. With three sets in the pack, you can restring when the tone turns dull and still have a spare set for a string that breaks before a lesson or a concert.

What is included with the Kurschner Professional Oud String Set

  • 3 × complete Kurschner oud string set for the Turkish oud

Pegs, picks and tools are not included.

Completing Your Oud Kit

New strings are a good moment to check the rest of the instrument: our set of 12 ebony pegs with 8 risha picks replaces worn pegs, and the 16-piece risha pack keeps picks at hand. More strings and cases are in our oud accessories.

Care

Wipe the strings with a dry cloth after playing to remove sweat and dust. New strings stretch, so expect to retune often in the first days. Change the strings one course at a time, so the tension on the soundboard stays even, and keep the spare sets dry in their box until you need them.

Are these strings for a Turkish or an Arabic oud?

They are made for the Turkish oud. The Arabic oud uses a different tuning and usually a longer scale, so it needs a string set made for it. If you are not sure which type of oud you have, send us a photo and its string length and we will advise you.

What does "x 3 Pcs" mean?

The pack contains three complete Kurschner oud string sets, not three single strings. You can fit one set now and keep two as spares, ready for a full restring or for a string that breaks before a lesson or a concert.

How often should I change oud strings?

It depends on how much you play. Change the set when the tone becomes dull, the strings discolour or the strings no longer hold their tuning. Players who practise every day usually restring more often than those who play once a week.

How do I fit a new set?

Change the strings one course at a time, so the tension on the soundboard stays even. New strings stretch, so retune several times during the first days until they settle and hold their pitch.
