My teacher has a beautiful Sandi oud, hand-picked by the great Turkish udi Nacadi Celik. Nacadi really likes them.
I also got one in a round-about way, and I'm very happy with it.

Ustaz Sandi does a great job and is a nice man too.

Good luck

Spyros...does he send any certificate with the oud? Some oud maker send a seperate cert as an authentication purposes. Can you tell me about the hard case?

Sorry dear Z, I can't help you there, because, as I told you I got mine indirectly from previous owner, and I got no separate certificate. The inside of the oud has the customary label with oud serial number, date, etc, from Sandi.
The cases are the classis hard Turkish ones (better) not the plain Egyptian ones.
