How much was it?

Congratulations! Nothing like the feeling of receiving a new and long expected oud. This is one on the most elegant ouds I've seen. Please post a sound clip if you can.

gorgeous ... one you can hear simply by looking at it. please post a sound clip by all means. it might be interesting to compare what it sounds like now and how it will sound in another 6 months or so - i have a feeling you'll be breaking it in pretty quickly. complimenti - bill

Great looking oud...
what are the pegs made of?

Congratulations, very nice oud. What is the scale length/body length? The bowl do not look like Brazillian rosewood to me though. The pick guard is. Any sound clip?

Welcome to the club!
Is the nut made of bone?

... great sound. wonderful play.

nothing came up on the previous two posts (and just now, the third) but your first sound sample is a peach - crisp and clear without being too bright ... nicely played as well.
