I think I've seen this label before but cannot locate via forum search. Any help appreciated.

Thanks

I had one of his ouds and the top was buckled up between the large sound hole and the neck joint. My repair guy said that the oud had been built with a flat top which allows this to happen. Ouds should be built with a slightly concave top to prevent this.
