Hi All
I'm selling my Michael Moussa 7 Course Al Lathy oud (making room for new one)
This oud is 4 years old and has matured wonderfully.
It has a good clear treble tone with strong bass also currently strung with Pyramid lute trebles and Kurschner basses.
Bowl width is 36.5 cm length 52 cm and depth 19 cm.
Action at neck join is 3.2 mm and neck width is 4.2 cm.
Ribs are sycamore and bubinga with beautiful inlay also along neck, pegbox and fingerboard- a work of art. the face is spruce.
I'll try to post more pictures!
I am asking £ 750 including Sukar hard case but ex shipping. I would not ship this instrument without a hard case.
Callers welcome I am based in Manchester UK.
If interested please u2u or email me kellyburke531@msn.com

I am seriously thinking of selling my two ouds in order to raise the cash necessary to acquire that one....it's a wonderful work of art, it really
is......let's see how it goes..........oh to be £750 richer......

Hi Kelly
How are you doing? Lovely sound file (is that you?). I can also attest to the quality of this oud, Michael makes some wonderful instruments.
Cheers
Leon

Hi Giorgio I can send more pictures and sound files if you want to contact me by email. Whereabouts in UK are you based? If transporting in UK it may
not need a hard case if personal collection arranged.
Thanks Leon The sound file is from Nizars playing- when the oud was quite new. It has matured well after four seasons I'm using lighter Pyramid lute
strings on it now.
Lets hope to meet up soon.
