I saw this oud on Ebay. The seller claims that it is from the 50s but doesn't know the maker. Does anyone recognize this work?

The maker is not mensioned anyware, though the pictures doesnt show much details, the oud seems ok. If the oud is really from the 50ies and the makers is known then the starting price is good, but I would ask for better pictures and a soundfile to be sure...

I inquired about the rosettes and the maker. The maker is lunknown and the reason for the missing rosettes is that the previous owner removed them to see who the maker was. It makes me suspicious, especially for that kind money.

Beware
