Updated video, solid body Maple electric Oud completed! Sound clip now attached!

This video shows the finished product at my attempt to build a solid body electric Oud with the installed electrics which includes a custom made under saddle transducer made by K&K Sound in Coos Bay, Oregon. Plays great! Action is perfect 2.5mm at neck & body with no buzzing! Got lucky there! The sound is amazing!! I believe due to the quality transducer and professional installation by luthier Peter Tsiorba.

Music: One of my favorite taqsims! By Michael Ibrahim

Would love to get some thoughts from Oud forum members.

Hi Edward,
Is it for sale or did you post in the wrong forum?
The taqsim by michael Ibrahim sounds amazing. Clear and crisp recording and capture.
Would like to hear this oud you made at some point.
cheers,
Matt

Not for sale, built it for my self. Wrong forum but can’t seem to change it to the general Oud Oud Oud forum? I will add a video with sound as soon as I get a recording from someone who can play better than me. I hope that will be soon. I am very happy with the playability and sound!

Thanks Edward
