Amer Ammouri's Oud


Anyone have any idea who made his oud? I'm surprised at how small the sound hole is. Can anyone explain to me how this has somehow made the oud sound great?

Hi

I reckon the miking set up and sound control on that day he perform (plus the acoustic environment on the concert hall) play big roll as well as his fine Oud. His playing is undoubtly great too!

Anyone have any news on who made his oud? I truly enjoy the projection it has. What do you all think?

Hi TP21 :wavey:

I believe it is all to do with sound effects. This all I can put it down to.

I think that without any central rose make the soundhole to look small and also without any decoration make it to look very small. Anyhow the soundholes are for an Arabic oud indeed small! Somewhat Turkish in size maybe?
Nice sound!




Best wishes

Hi guys. I am glad to see Amer's video on this site. I personally think he's currently one of the best oudist. I'm going to try to post a sound file from one of Sabah Fakhri's private concerts in Aleppo.
As far as the maker of his ouds, it could range from Ibrahim Sukar to any of the other fine oud makers currently in Syria. All i know is that Sukar manufacture small Iraqi style ouds, and they sound great as you heard. but again, it could be any other oud maker that is unkown.

Is this oud necessarily Turkish influenced only because of the small soundhole Ronny?
