COZ OF ME ,BUT COZ THEY R STRAIGHT FORWARD...
I LIKE TO TELL YOU AND TELL ALL THE BROTHERS ON THIS WEB SITE WHAT IS SO SPECIAL ABOUT HIS OUDS..
%100 DRY WALNUT WOOD
%100 ACCURACY IN MEASURES.(WHAT I MEAN BY THAT IS THE RIGHT DISTANCES BETWEEN STRINGS ,ALSO THE NECK THICKNESS ,PLUS A CONFORTABLE SIZE AND PRACTICAL
SHAPE ..
BROTHER ..TRUST ME ,THESE GUYS KNOW WHT THEY R DOING..AND WHATS GOOD ABOUT THEM IS THEY ARE ALL PLYERS OF THE OUD ,AND I HAVE KNOWN THEM FOR
9YEARS,AND GIVING THEM SO MANY OPINIONS ,AND THEY HAVE TRIED EVERY POSSIBLE WAY TO IMPROVE ,,
JUST TELL MANSOUR THAT YOU WANT A PIECE LIKE GHASSAN BASHIR LIKES ,,
BROTHERS ..THERE ARE SO MANY SECRETES IN THIS FIELD THAT NO ONE EVER TRIED TO REVEAL IT ,MAYBE COZ THEY DONT KNOW OR THEY DONT WANT TO ...ANYWAY ,,I
WILL WORK ON PREPARING AN ESSAY ABOUT THE ME AND THE OUD AND 20 TOUGH YEARS OF RUNNING,,IF YOU NEED MORE HELP YOU MAY E-MAIL ME AT /
MUSICOMPOSER5@YAHOO.COM

Hello Mr. Bashir,
Welcome to the forums.
I heard that you were living in Chicago. My teacher is Issa Boulos. Do you have a website yet? Would you be interested in posting some photos and
sound clips of your oud by Mr. Hayder? Again, welcome. I invite you to take a look at my website below.
Salam,
Jameel

Ghassan,
We look forward to hearing some of those clips and your new website. Hope your back gets better.
I think you have mistaken me for someone else. I'm not a big blonde guy. I'm dark-haired but bald. Around here we call that the
"oud" hairstyle. You hairy fellows, don't be jealous now
Please tell us about some of your stories. Hook us up with some new oud makers. There are plenty of guys here who are interested.
Hey Zul,
Where you getting all these neat photos??

Ghassan, I'm interested in knowing where in L.A. you're going to be staying. There are a lot of resources here, as I'm sure you know,
and I hope that you make the most of them.

take care | Hello Mr Bashir. Does the oud maker you listed above have a web sight? If not, how much are his
ouds? I would like to have a Syrian oud that is reputable, but I have limited funds I receive for my disability. Any help would be great. Thanks.

zulkarnain jameel truepharaoh21
:
applause:
first of all ...is zulka a C I A ..where the hick did you get these pics from ??am going crazy ,really ..
these were taken in cairo back in 97,in front of one of the very commercial stores that sell the oud,and the reasons that made me take these shots
were:
1-simply..it was cool ..it was an extraordinary view..and ......
2- it was very sad ,it was a form of irrespect to the oud,,the way they were laid on window shelves,honestly insulted me ..i always like to see the
oud's head up..this uncivilized phenomena must end ..
anyway,i do not remember giving these pics to anyone..so where the hill did ya get m from zulka..cant wait till i find out ,this is gonna drive crazy
,and am already one ,,plz tell me ASAP..
one of you guys asked about oud maker ?any particular one?
there is an ammazing one in baghdad,and i hope that he is still alive ,i have a piece of his ,and i intend to have him make me a real special
collection of ouds ,his name is fuad jihad ,so well known in iraq,,he came out with a model that is real hard to make ,and am sure that we wont find
some one eles who can make this modle easily,,the first time i seen this model was 10 years ago ,in amman -jordan ,by a maker called saad al
tayyar,and he left to canada in that time ,
tayyar's ouds were unbelievable but ,dead sound,,guys am so sure that everyone will want to have one of those when he gets to see them ,i will
try to get some pics..
answer to truepharoah..i think am gonna be in hollywood ,or orange county,,not sure yet,i will tell you when i decide,,i am sick in the mean time
(back problem),and in virginia,,i will head to L A soon as i feel well
ZULKA,,JAMEEL..where r u located ,and what do u do..
zulka,whre the you got m from......

Hey Ghassan,
Here is another surprise. I haven't updated the video page yet, but this is the latest addition. Actually, I'll do it
now. 
What can you tell us about this oud?
Take care,
Mike

Ghassan, I'd be thrilled if you came down to Hollywood! Man, everyone should just all come down to LA and let's have an oud convention or
something.

best regards | Thank you Mr.
Bashir. Right now I'm taking care of some financial problems, but I'll let you know when I'm ready. Syrian ouds have a good deep tone
that I like. Right now, I'm learning the Turkish style, and plan on learning the Arabic style for my music major. Thanks.
