3 ouds, Turunz-Ghadban-Matta
Hey guys
I recently met a friend who owns 3 ouds, one for Shehata, one for Faruk and one for Nazih Ghadban. Below you find the result of comparing Faruk's,
Nazih's and Matta oud on the same audio setting with no sound effects

Hope you find that useful
Best

Hi,
Thanks for your nice posting.
I have been wanting the comparison trial such as this!
I did not hear the people in the video call each oud's maker names.
Are they Shehata, Faruk and Ghadban?
Or Faruk's, Nazih's and Matta?
If so, Matta is equivalent for Shehata?
and What is the order of playing each oud?
Please let me know.
Anyway, I like the last one, being biggest sound.

Hi,
I have a preference for Turkish uds but I must say that the Matta oud has a really good deep tone. By the way, is the Türünz ud a Turkish model or
an Arabic model? I know that Mr. Türünz builds both types of uds.

Thanks for the nice comparison Souheil 
I see that your Matta oud has matured well It is sounds really good and not much
different from a fixed bridge oud.

Great post Souheil. Really interesting to hear all three in fairly comparable conditions. I've always wanted to do something like this. If any oud
makers want to send me free samples for the purpose of comparison, I'm very open to offers!

Thanks for the post Katakofka!!
I have to say that your Matta oud is the best Matta oud I have heard!
I don't have any Matta oud, but I have tried at least 5 of them. And none is half as good sounding as the one you have!
Play it in good health : )

all matta ouds sound great as seen above. You may have probably played Matta ouds with 3 holes. All ouds in the video above have one hole.

This model is a success. But if you tried at least 5 of them and non is half as good sounding as the one Kata has... I think it's either a bit
exaggerated or an extremely bad statistical coincidence...

Well, yes. All the ones I played were with 3 holes. The old model as ou call it!
But I never said they were not good!! I liked all of them (exept for one- one of them was not so good. And that was not just my opinen!)..
But I think that katakofka's first Matta oud has something ekstra! it sounds better then all the rest! That is all : )
And I still think so after hearing the comparition of the 3 matta ouds!
Love all of them, though

Welcome !
It's true the turunz is the best balanced oud. His ouds are piece of arts. However, I have a preference for larger bowl to get a good base sound.

Do you find any difference in holding and playing them? Do the dimensions affect their playability? Or are they equally easy to play?
