Ghadban 2003 floating bridge
Hello all
It's been a while since I was on here.
I'm selling my Nazih Ghadban 2003 floating bridge.
This is a very deep, resonant, high volume instrument. It has a few scratches on the finish of the face (see the pics) but sound, structure and
playability are all top notch.
I did make moves to sell this one a few years back but couldn't let go of it for what the market would pay at that stage. I'm reducing the price now
as I'm moving house and will have much less space for my slightly lavish collection of instruments so with regret I have to offload a few.
Sl no: 981
Top: Canadian cedar
Bowl: Lebanese walnut
Neck & pegbox: walnut
Pegs: ebony
Fingerboard: ebony
Bridge: indian rosewood & bone
Nut: ebony
Vibrating string length: 60cm
Please PM me for any further information.

Price is UK £ 600 plus P&P and includes a Sukar hard case (for full disclosure, Sukar cases aren't top quality). As this is a knockdown price I'm
afraid that's really as low as I can go.
I'd rather avoid the risk of international courier and keep it within the UK, but will consider overseas (UK shipping estimated at £54, EU at £100).
I have a real soft spot for this oud. It was my first, I bought it straight from the lovely Nazih himself and went through a fair bit to get it back
to the UK. I would love it to go to a caring and appreciative home!
