Hi Tarik,
Check out the Folk Music Center in Claremont. It is about an hour east of L.A., but it will be worth the time. They usually have a few ouds there, and they have
a huge amount of other insturments from around the world. Rufi works there, and he would be a great guy to meet when/if you go.
Take care,
Mike

Thank you Mike, your in LA huh? Im trying to spend some more time down here sooner or later, I might be moving here in the next few months or so- Im
really interested in starting some type of a tarab(esque) circle, with folks- we have a dope fusion jam session in SF every other friday- The
invitation is open for any oud nuts that want test there skills in non-traditional areas- Its all about fun... Anyway thanks Mike, and if people are
interested email me (tarik) at excentrikaz@aol.com - Ima check out that shop next weekend when I come back down.
Tarik

Just in case you wanted a tidbit of trivial information, the Folk Music Center and Musuem in Claremont was founded by Ben Harper's grandparents.
