Beautiful work as always John!
It sounds lovely.
So now that you have this one restored...how does it compare soundwise with your own Nahat model here?:

Thank you Matt.
I don't like to compare my work in that way, but feel free to do so yourself. Lets just say I'm very happy with that oud and so are others. You also
have to consider the element of time.. I can't imagine what my oud will sound like in 90 years, and I certainly built it to last that long
