1965 Khalife Oud for sale

Jody Stecher - 12-10-2011 at 11:41 PM

I am selling a 1965 Khalife Oud from Damascus. I am its first and only owner and I now have a better oud and need to make space. This is a nice oud in good condition. The original pegs have been replaced with professionally fitted violin pegs. The action is medium. The sound is warm and deep. Scale is 61cm. It is has been well treated and is has never been cracked or broken. A space between 2 ribs opened up in 1969 and was well repaired then. I can't find the spot now. I figure it's worth $600 but will consider other opinions, especially ones that think I should get a higher price. I am in San Francisco, CA and will sell it locally but am disinclined to ship it. No case. I will post photos of the label in the next message.

I'm reducing my photos of the label to fit the site's limit but the site does not agree. Here are two. I'll try another in another message. Taken together I think all the info will be visible.

This is a great oud. Hope you get what you deserve for it Jody.

Thank you John. I've got 2 interested parties already. If the oud doesn't sell here we'll find a way to get it safely to you on the east coast. -jody

Thanks Jody, sorry its been long for me. I just finished moving and been busy. Anyone would be foolish not to buy this oud for the price you ask. Good luck.
