Hi every one ,
i would like to share with you the oud i received from the great oudmaker Magdy MOUSSA.As i am not a good player i can't post a soundfile yet but the oud already has a very deep and warm arabic sound.I am impressed about everything (finishing,workmanship and the kindness of Mr MOUSSA!!!!!).
Hope you will like it

I would love to see pictures of his workshop.

Mabrouk alik, Samir, for your new oud , i really like the sound. I don't have pictures of his workshop but i will ask him for you if it is possible.
thanks suz-i-dil and Erg , i really like the sound, day after day, and for the moment with cheap strings,no buzzing even if the oud is new and very easy and comfortable to play.The pictures don't show how this oud is beautiful i will try to post some better pictures soon. I am so happy!!!

Congrats Cyril
Eventually, you`ve got the oud you deserve which I am sure will wipe out your previous bad experience and restore your confidence in ouds, oudists and luthiers. I am completely stunned out by the beauty and elegance of the instument and the unique amazing grain of the back rosewood. I have heard the recording of Ameer`s(a twin of yours) which sounds as you said deep warm and very arabic and Iam sure yours is as good
Best of luck

Very good looking oud. Mabrouk son !
What about the sound ?

One thing needs to be clarified once and for good: Does Michael Mousa make ouds by himself or by employees he's hiring .
I've heard the man is a doctor in the first place. Is he ?

Yours indeed
Alfaraby

Yes he is a Doctor and he is a one man show. He learnt to build from his father. His Ouds are fantastic and I hope when I get round to replacing my Oud shaped hole I will speak with him. And as DORADO says his kindness and generosity cannot be overestimated, he is a treasure to the oud world, a fantastic builder/player/composer and an absolute gentleman.

Thanks for sharing the pictures DORADO, beautiful work.
