Fouad Haidar Oud

A friend of mine is selling a floating bridge oud made by Fouad Haidar. I actually sold him this oud many years ago so he could learn and impress his future father in law, he never learnt how to play and still got to marry the girl so... now he wants to sell it.

Having played this oud it is really well made and has a very nice sound. Very Arabic sound which actually sounds close to a fixed bridge oud. There is no sound sample at this time, I will see if we can arrange to record one.

He is asking the equivalent of $875 usd or best offer. Comes with a nice custom fitted hard case. Shipping is extra. Pictures and contact information at the link below.

Quick sound sample. As you can hear a very good sounding oud but sounds more like a fixed bridge. A change of strings may change the timbre à bit. Reminds me a bit of the sound Marcel khalifeh gets from the oud.
