    I would new strings and cables,if you can afford it go with a really good quality company for strings like Winners choice.Have the bow gone over and properly set up.

    I would cuz they tend to dry rot even in storage or break on the inside where you cant see.....you might even find that strings and cables arent very cheap and instead of doing that...you might find something else for the same or a little more money with good strings!
