Hi,

I am not an expert luthier, nor a wood worker, but I'm really surprised by the size of your braces.
The global look of your oud is nice, but to my point your braces need to be more shaped, at least thinner.

What about the sound result?
Regards

you are correct...they should be more shaped,it was my second oud so i had no expirience....I followed my tap tunning so i had to keep them in a balance but things went not as expected...It sounds good ,but could better!!
