Ciao!!
I will probably visit london in one month (more or less), and I was wondering if I could have the chanche to see some ouds, since I have to buy one..
I have a Banshir model, too "bright" for me\ I am looking for a warm and round sound oud with no buzz.
THank you for your attentions and greetings from Sicily!!

Hi daniele! Long time :-)

I have an excellent Sukar model 1 abrabic oud.
It is actually my "dearest" oud. So I never offered it to sale, even though I don't play arabic size ouds anymore (because of a probem in the right shoulder). So I have sold all my arabic ouds (except this one :)

I have writen about it before on this forum. It has an amazing deep arabic sound, easy to tune, keeps the tuning for ages!!, low action (well, adjastable), NO buzz.

I can sell it for $500 (after all, it is model 1, and I can't ask for more, even though I garanty it is an excellent oud!)

So, why don't come for a visit here in Oslo :)

Best regards
Geko

p.s. I would still love to come to Sicily :)
