Shahata contact help

Hi Guys,
This Oud is belongs to Fissal Zeyad (my brother). The body of the Oud is made by Khalil Al Johary in 1950 with two types of old Indian rose woods, however, the face was replaced with an new one by an Oud maker. The problem is that the sound of the Oud changed after installation of the new face. Fissal would like to have Shahata to replace the face and restore the amazing sound the Oud had. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Fissal is planing to travel to Egypt this month and meet Mr. Shahata. But he does not know him personal and never meet him before.
Please email me at : szeyad@hotmail.com

Hey Zeyad. I'm not sure if you'd gotten the address yet, but if not, it's 80 Misr & Sudan Street, Cairo. I got that from Mike's My Ouds page. Hopefully, the face of the oud will be fixed soon and you'll enjoy it's great sound once again.
