What kind of Oud plays Yair Dalal?

Hello oud lovers,

Im browsing this great forum for longer time, today I decided to join this community as sound of oud is more and more appealing to me!

I got in Oud through music of Yair Dalal, I love his sound!

My question is what kind of oud he plays? Is it Arabic oud? It seems to me that it has lot of power in bass, which I like a lot.

And second question, is there any chance to get built this kind of oud by luthier in a price range 1500-2000$?

Do you have any recommendation? Im thinking about Dmitry from Greece, tho dont know what are his prices so far..

Thanks for any tips

Yaron Naor reported restoration of an old Nahat style oud for Yair Dalal here:

Perhaps this is the oud in question?

Yair Dalal performs on 2 main ouds, One of them has lots of mother of pearl inlay. I think that one is made my Kamil Moweiss, and his other oud is made by someone from the Joubran family. want to say Hatem Joubran.
