Afif oud
Does anyone know what kind of oud afif is using on the video labeled "taqassim kurd" in the videos section? That oud sounds amazing. My
dream is to some day own a oud that sounds that nice (and maybe play it that well)

 Afifs oud is made by Husain Sabsabys brother. Here is his website for more
info on his ouds and his music.

Thanx David, I checked out the site and sent and email but the email didn't go through for some reason. If you can give me any information about
this maker, it would be highly appreciated. I didn't find any information about his ouds on his website. Where is he located and are his ouds
very expensive?

 Hey Revaldo, He emailed me regarding his ouds and he has several different
ones. The prices vary from I believe $800-1200? I cant really remember. For an oud like Afifs I believe you'll pay about $1200. I think Sabsaby
is in Syria.

I am still an amature but I haven't really heard this maker's name mentioned on this site. Is his work as reputable as say Shehata's
ouds. I know it is hard to compare two makers but if anyone can give me some incite, that would be great. I am looking to buy quality oud in about 2
months and I really would like to get the best thing for the money i'm going to invest. Thanx in advance
