My new Fathy Amin oud
Hello to All, from a snow covered England 
Here is a ray of sunshine. She plays so wonderfully, with a warm classic Egyptian sound. I am so delighted with this oud. I had become very attached
to my Sukar but have to say this oud by Egyptian Grand Master Fathy Amin is a class apart. Specs: string length 60cm
action at join 2.2mm
strings Pyramid orange label 5
course FF AA dd gg cc
Sound clip? someday, I promise but take it from me. Its lovely.
Makes me well happy to have such an excellent sound with superb playability. An inspiration well beyond my expectations, cant keep my hands off her
!!!!. Enjoy pics
Best Wishes, Charlie

Congratulations, enjoy it in good health.
Is the oud made by Mr. Fathi or by his son Sayed?
Best wishes

Lovely and stunning looking oud Charlie . No wonder you are so happy. I
blame the weather for not seeing and holding this beauty last weekend. Play it in good health. See you soon.

Thank you all for your congratulations and responses. Abusaid, the oud is by Fathy though I believe his son Sayeed makes good ones too.
Leon, yes, it is opening up choice for me, making me explore more both musically and with technique.
Look forward to next UK meet.
If anyone has pictures of the meet(s) then I'm sure many on the forum would like to see them. (new thread may be?).
This forum has done, and continues to do, a great service the oud world. I feel forever indebted to Mike, I would never have met other players, found
out so much, and studied so hard without the help and company of this forum's community.
Best Wishes, Charlie

Thanks Michael, I bought in London. The seller ( a forum member ) brought it back from Egypt having chose and collected it from Fathy Amin personally.
Hope you continue to enjoy yours!!!
Sam, do you feel there is something wrong with mosaic wood? 
Best Wishes, Charlie
