I wonder if the oud that you will actualy get is simillar to the pictured. There is something strange about the way the fingerboard extension looks in the image you posted, the sound board shows thru the finger board extension! Someone else on the forum maybe able to tell you more.

i think the fingerboard stop when it reach the soundboard and there is an extension over the soundbord but the color of the extension piece is lighter than the color of the fingerbord, so thats why ! (well i am not sure)
