These are really nice looking ouds - they have a beatifully smooth line to them. Tell us how they sound if you get one.

Sure I will keep you inform.
But with time, I have heard the waiting time is quite long.
Also, his email is not working (delivery failured).
Does someone know another mail to contact him?

I've not been successful in emailing him in the past. A direct call to his shop is probably the best way to reach him. He's typically there from 10-7,
Monday-Saturday.
Anyone know what the wait time is these days? Last time I talked with him it was 15 months...

The waiting list is (was) more like 15 months if you want to have a custom-made oud. He sometimes has instruments he custom made that the customer
didn't want... I would imagine your friend got one of those.

hi suzidil,
i spent some time with ramazan at his shop in kadikoy this past fall, he told me that the wait was about 1 year...his ouds are remarkable and he
himself is a gracious and kind person who you will see at basically every turkish classical music concert in the city...good luck,
amos
Our music is like an ocean...
