Picture of my latest product Wenge-Juniper oud-1 attached.
It has chain filets between the ribs.
Juniper is the most precious wood,dark Cherry colored,grows in forests of high mountains at Mediterranean area of Turkey.
It is appropriate for ouds and baglamas.

I am constantly in awe of the beautiful instruments that are posted here by our talented luthiers. That is one absolutely gorgeous instrument Haluk! I see it has an endpin jack; what sort of pickups/electronics are installed?

Hi Paul,

I used Artec piezo under the bridge and there is an Ebony stick on the piezo for to prevent sounds from outside.
