looking for second-hand oud in thessaloniki

greetings,

i'm a new student of the oud, and this is my first post to this forum. i live between thessaloniki and thrace, in northern greece.

i'm looking to buy a second-hand oud, preferably turkish. does anyone living in or passing through thessaloniki have something like a beginner's oud they'd like to upgrade from?

many thanks!

Hi,

Tasos Theodorakis is in Thessaloniki, and sells more affordable oud models from Turkey in addition to making custom instruments. It's probably worth speaking with him to see if he might have what you are looking for.

Take care,

thanks, mavrothi!

i've seen tasos' website and admired his fine craftsmanship. now i will certainly look him up on my next trip to thessaloniki.
