The first label says:
Tharwat Saber
Oud specialist

The second label (perpendicular) says
Al-Tayyeb

Al-Tayyeb is a Tharwat's nickname and could be translated into "the well-meaning and kind"

.. Looking good .. :-)

Hope you can let us know what it sounds like and that you can tell us how you got it.

Thank you for your response!

I actually found it on craigslist (http://www.craigslist.com, they have ouds up for sale pretty often). I bought it from a guy in Berkley with a beat up hard case for very cheap.

I will post an audio clip at some point. Can anyone tell around when this was made? It doesn't look old, but you never know. Thanks again.
