Congratulations Jassem!
Very nice oud!
What is "king wood", if I may ask?

P.S. Two of the "indien" peaces you play on you tube are among my favorites :-) Beautifully plaid.

Congratulations again.

Fadel, I think you mean: f c g D C F = fa do sol RE DO FA (from highest pitch to lowest)
This is how Naseer tunes it.. And it's commonly known as the Iraqi tuning.

Jassim, fa do sol RE LA FA is Arabic tuning and not Iraqi..
