Thanks alaaraj,

I have asked him about the price of the Simbat Der Bedrossian Oud's 1946,and he told me it's 3000$ !. I think it's a little expensive, I am looking around 1800$ or less.

The other one I can think of is Najeeb Shaheen, I'm sure he would have some .. Check: http://www.oudman.com .. Although I don't think he'd be much cheaper than Ghadban, it's worth asking!

Best of luck

By the way, what's special about Simbat Bedrossian? I'm just curious!

Hi Almoos

I bought a 1925 Amanak Der Bedrosian oud from Nazih Ghadban, his ouds are in great condition and sound just like the sound track.
I live in the US, he shipped it and it was in excellent condition. He also makes his own hard case which is well worth the investment. You will not find a 1940's oud for under $3000 ,especially one that has been cared for as Nazih does to his ouds.

Contact Oud Proff. He has a few of them

Hi all,
Sumbat Bedrosian was a very good maker however I prefer Dikran Najarian....
good luck with your hunt,
