Yaroub Fadel's soundboard bracing. Anyone got a clue?

Hi,

I've been an observer on this great forum for sometime.

I am going to start making my first Oud very soon. I will post the entire experiment on the forum. The back is going to be Cambodian Rosewood; Adirondack Spruce for the soundboard with Adirondack spruce bracing, Cambodian Rosewood neck with Gabon Ebony fingerboard and a Mahogany pegpox with Gabon Ebony pegs.

This is going to be Yaroub Fadel's - Munir Bashir model. I have all the dimensions and everything, but what I really need is the soundboard bracing positions.

Anyone has any idea? Please help!

Ali
