The rosewood oud

Hi everyone,
I finally put some strings on my latest oud.
This is the oud from this project: http://www.mikeouds.com/messageboard/viewthread.php?tid=12157

I had to tweak the nut and shave some of the fingerboard to reduce the action a little bit. Now its just perfect :)
here is the sound.

Please let me know what you think, personally I think it is my best sounding oud yet. I have experimented with a diffent kind of bracing (based on a Nahat which has and unbalanced slanted bracing seen here on the forums) very nice and even sound in the 1st and 2nd position but a bit weak down the fingerboard.

thank you,
Samir.
