Wanted: Turkish (58.5 cm) oud (Sandi or similar) / EU based

Neuraxial - 5-28-2020 at 06:07 AM

Hello all,

I currently own a Sandi GK-15 (entrey level model) oud and I think it sounds lovely, but in the short to mid term I am looking to upgrade.

Sandi has the MKA-25 model which is a step up and priced attractively. However, I am posting this here because I would prefer a second hand instrument for several reasons.

One is that my budget is somewhat limited (the MKA-25 sells on eBay for about 600 euro and if possible I would like to stay below that).

The second reason is that I am located in the EU and buying from Turkey would incur significant customs duty, so extra costs. For this reason I would prefer to buy from the EU.

To make a long story short:

Are you based in the EU and are selling a Turkish style oud more or less in the quality and price range of the Sandi MKA-25? Let me know.

Cheers!

I have a Ramazan Calay that I plan to sell, but I want 750 euros for it, so I guess that is too much for you. But if you change your mind...

yeah, 750 is on the high side for me right now -- but sent U2U just in case ;)

^ that's a beautiful instrument! Out of my range at the moment, though.
