Yaron -- that's one interesting and wild bracing pattern man. Can't wait to hear it. Beautiful work by the way, and thanks for all the photos too. Take care.

Regards..Paul

Thanks and some more pics


Thank you guys, Sazi, Muthada and Luttgutt for your support and comments, this definitely brings even more drive in to my work.

Some new images of the new rosewood bridge (bone suddle), and the face glued on the body.

Very interresting oud.
I like the bridge very much.
What kind of fingerboard will you use ?
This one will have an important impact on the esthetic of the face.
Can't wait to see and hear it.

Good luck

Robert

Thanks Robert!
The fingerboard will be 2 pieces of Ebony, one on the neck and the second will be on the oud's face
It will be a standard fretboard to give the player a "home" feeling...;)
I am too, very exited to finsih and hear it!!
Y.

Turkish Oud project is finished!


Hi All,
5 months and 928 grams of special wood and delicate work have come to an end!

And the Oud is ready,

See Yaniv Raba playing... (10 minutes after the strings were attached)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y8YWIsO8tg

More professional sound track will be soon!!!

Thanks!
Yaron.
Oud player - Yaniv Raba!

Dude ! It looks great, and sounds good as well -- the alternate soundhole location seems to be a non issue. Really balanced initial sound, really lively sounding -- would love to hear it once the strings settle in. The finish work looks great too. Beautiflul grain in the pickguard. How did Yaniv react to the soundhole pointing up towards his face ?? Great job man.

Regards...Paul

Great piece of functional Art there Yaron, well done. Interesting that with such a deviation from the Turkish "norm" in regards to bracing and sound-hole design, it still sounds Turkish!

Great work, all the best for the next one;)

Thanks Poul for your feedback!
Yaniv was very happy with the soundhole pointing his face...
now he can hear himself better while playing,
The point in doing the soundhole on the side is to get a clean soundboard and there for a sharper tone,
I will do some pro recording soon and then you will hear the clean, sharp and balanced sound oof this oud.
Good day
Yaron Naor

Thanks for your great feedback!
Yes it is a Turkish reak sound, I love it, Yaniv was very happy, now he says that he has to play a month and "open" it, for a longer sustain and volume.

I will publish a good sound sumple soon
Thanks
Yaron Naor
