My new Haluk Eraydin oud!

Hello everyone. I just got my new Haluk Eraydin oud, and it sounds great! It has a nice bright tone and low action. I recommend that everyone try an Eraydin oud. For those who don't know the web sight it's http://www.eraydinsazevi.com.tr. Hard work goes in to every single one of his instruments and you can hear and see it in his work! I don't have any film equipment or recording equipment, but their is an image galary on the sight. For Mr. Eraydin, thanks again! Your work is finominal! I hope that the next oud that everyone, beginner or pro, gets one of Mr. Eraydin's ouds. His work exceeded my expectations. It's not that I didn't doubt his work, but I expected it to be a little hard to brake in. The oud plays well after tuning it up once. Thanks again.

Hello Zul. I got the learner moddle. It's the oud two moddle with rosewood bowl, spruce tope, and ebony pegs and neck. It costs 119 US dollars, and they're shipped with case and rishas. All of his ouds come in plywood boxes that are nailed shut for safe delivery. If you need any more information, email me at wfspark@yahoo.com or wfspark@hotmail.com.

Hello Haluk. Yes, I missunderstood you. Forgive me for I can't see the wood, so I'm relying on your specs on the sight. Thanks for the clarification. The oud still plays great! I love the sound. The action is perfect. It even works great with a capo so I can play old Ottamen music in any key. I hope to make a CD of oud, guitar, and tarabouk. Once again, thanks for the clarification. I hope I didn't offend you in anyway. Thanks.
