a lot of people on these forums find these to be pretty good , especially for the price point, but i hear mixed things about .palmyrami and im not
seeing exactly what i want.... does anyone have any experience dealing with him directly, or knows if he would do custom work?ameer - 1-7-2010 at 01:28 PM
I know he does custom work, search around here and you'll find someone saying for $500-800 US on average. alfaraby - 1-7-2010 at 03:33 PM
does anyone have any experience dealing with Sukkar directly, or knows if he would do custom work?
He does , but that would take a life long . The man is too busy ...
His standard ouds are just great for the money you pay, but if custom oud is required, you rather pick another Syrian luthier like Zaher Khaleefah, a
young (24 years old) promising luthier from Damascus, or Fadi Matta of Lebanon, etc.
Good Luck

thanks, that's helpful!
i need an electric oud neck, but just the neck and middle portion with the elctronics -- i.e., no body frame.
13 string/7 course.
i may even post my request on the projects forum, see if anyone's up for it!
