Now I think you have a better idea of this oud. It is really a piece of art. The oud is all original. In other words, nothing has been changed. I had
to have some work done with the roses, but that was about it. Keep in mind this oud is made in 1930, so the face is not as clean as one would like,
but for me the sound was too incredible. I had to have this oud. The neck and pegbox is made from ebony and inlaid with ivory. Maybe soon Mike can
help me put a sound file.

Wonderful oud indeed...
but i have another question for you Adel...you own a lot of ouds from important "classical" oud makers...(and not only)...but how do you
find your Joseph oud (i dont even know who Joseph is) in compare with the others? In fact im in love with this instrument 3-4 years now since i have
listened to it and saw it in the CD with Niebla (the first time i heard you too...)

Hello Nikos,
I have many ouds at home, I play the oud, but also I love it as an instrument....
Joseph oud is very good oud, outstanding oud realy... different than Nahat Or Al Leath or Jamil Georgy....
Many thanks for liking my music
salamat,
Adel

Adel, I really appreciate the photos and I get nostalgic. This type of ouds confirms that they were built by sensible makers who built for the sound
and also the eye - today only the eyes to many times...
An oud of this quality confirms also that is was a special instrument and not an everyday product.
Btw, how does it works with mop on the fingerboard?
I hope that I can take a closer look when I'm going to Paris couple of times during the summer months when I'm visiting relatives to my
wife.
Best wishes
Ronny

Adel,
Thanks again for sharing these pictures. I hope we can hear it soon too.
It's funny, but I remember one note you played on it for us in Cairo, the high Sol. It was so clear and brilliant, it's stuck in my head.
I don't think I'll ever forget it.
take care,
mav
