Hello-
I just purchased a Sukar 212 and am very excited to be starting the journey!
Could anyone recommend a good online video for beginners that would cover a maqam in Arabic tuning CFAdgc?
Thanks!

Hello 
welcome to the forum.
This site should be enough to start with.
This DVD of the forum-member Oudproff is a "must-have" for beginners(in my opinion)
There are lots of "learning to play the oud"-videos on youtube.
On "Mikes Ouds" (not the forums) are a few vids also.
Be sure to learn basic oud-things like how-to-hold-the oud,how to use the risha (plectrum) and so on...... espacially if you come from a
guitarbackground or so.
The things you do wrong when you start are very hard to unlearn later.
So, welcome again and happy ouding!!!
