Master !
Look great, but a dark pickguard is much, much beautiful. This light one gives the first impression as if the original wood was peeled.
Are there any soundclips there or what ?
Sorry, I'm not "in" the facebook fad, so excuse me.

Thank you very much

Yours indeed,
Alfaraby

Very beautiful. I like the light pick guard and all the geometric inscriptions and rosettes. It gives it a unique look.

The black back was almost too much. I love ebony but something that shows wood grain will complete the look IMHO.

It is gorgeous regardless. Great work!

I think this is the case of a pictures which dont do justice to the instrument I am sure.

thanks for presenting your work.

I like the black bowl! Looks like a solid carved-out piece of wood.

I'm indepted to all who liked and liked but criticized for some personal and reasonable ground.

This is the destiny of all aesthetic aspects... I appreciate and show repect all evaluations putforward here by highly esteemed friends and keep in mind for my upcoming models.

The black bowl is beautiful. One day I would like to own an entirely black oud.

Is this a carbon fibre bowl?
Or some material from 3D printing?
You've been innovating!! :)
Congratulations!


Su,
This is not a carbon fibre, but an African Ebony Oud.

Thank you for your trust. We are going to make the ouds from carbon fibre one day...

How much would a beauty like this go for?
