It's better to write the price here. You give many details, add pictures. We know the great work of Nazih Ghadban. The only missing point is your price. Why?

I prefer to keep that in private for those who are serious. The price is negotiable too. I am in Los Angeles, and
people can either pick up or I ship, so that changes the cost too. This is a top oud, smaller size, and has a lot
of resonance, a person can feel it going into their heart when playing it.
For price, please send me a U2U, thanks.

Greetings nissim1- I own a Ghadban, so I know the quality you speak of. One thing I am curious to, if you don't mind me asking- you say you purchased the oud brand new last week, now wish to sell it, or it will go back to Nazih.
Some of us may be curious as why did you purchase the oud if you do not need it, and why will it go all the way back to Nazih in Lebanon so soon, surely someone will buy this oud in time? regards=MW

It's not the sound I personally was searching for, as I am very specific about what I want.
So, I am returning the oud since my budget for an oud was spent on that one, and I want to get
a different oud, so I don't want to keep it.

This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.... not just one of the most beautiful ouds! I wish I could afford it. Good luck to you.

Price is negotiable for the right person. Oud is the smaller version for people with shorter arms. Clean beautiful sound.
