The "1999 Floating bridge" one is clearly fake.

The "1981" one looks like a Fadel, but I think it is a copy and not genuine. It's difficult to tell from the photos, but something about it looks off to me. here are some genuine Fadel ouds of that design:

Thanks a lot Brian, that was useful information for mw

There is no way that the oud is made in 1981 (Fadel or not)!

Not Fadel but good copy

An interesting question Oudcenter as it seems highly likely that you are the person who listed these ouds on eBay (as instruments made by Mohammed Fadil).
I note that several of the ouds listed by 'samstore12' on eBay have the word 'oudcenter' superimposed on the photos.

Also.. his son made ouds and used the father's label.

Greg,

I listed this Oud for a some one I know that claim it's made by mohammed fadhil, and I was trying to be certain to what he claim, and I list it because I didn't know any one in mikeouds that may give me an advice and I was hoping to get some feedback from the people who may watch it on eBay, that why I end the list when I hear the opinions from the people in the Forum. the Oud still available for Sell by music store guy in Michigan. and he says it's custom made by Son of Md Fadhi.


Zakiya,

Is that what you wish?, It's good to know how you think!

it is cleear that these ouds are definitely not by the great M fadel as the description states that its a m fadel style made in syria and not an M fadel oud.
