Beaufiful instrument. Pls send me price.

Dear Lute,

Thank you for bringing this subject, I wasn't thinking about selling this oud that's why I did not put it in Sell/Buy Post. I wanted to share it with th eoud lovers.
Any way I have had couple of reactions and u2u's asking the price and I replied to those people.

I have anyway managed to make a better video after a week of tuning and adjustement :)
