And I got to tune it up and play it. The oud could do with some work though and a new set of string.

I wish it was for sale it would be mine for ever.:D

it is now kept by the original owners son who dosent play and it hasn't been used for years. but even with the old strings It is very nice to play easy to tune. The joints on the finger board which need sanding down to get rid of the buzzing sound when you place your finger where the pieces join. and the soundboard needs some work. It has been really well kept he even has the missing rossett a clever luither could make this oud into a dream. He wont sell it to me coz it used to be his dads.

Ill keep trying, one day it will be mine ;)
