But what do you think about ouds that are for sale in amazon.com? Has anybody ever heard some instruments from there or are those just for looking?
Maybe this one:

DON'T EVEN THINK OF BUYING THAT PARTICULAR OUD!
They are made in Pakistan and are the worst quality imaginable. Several people made that mistake and their reports are unanimously bad !
Decide if you want a Turkish, Arabic, or Iraqi style and go from there. Many good makers patronize this forum, Shehata, Haluk, Ghadban, etc. For $ 500
you can get a beginners oud from them.
Good luck

TO ME any 3ood that is mass produced is more like a tourist 3ood ...i recommend not buying anything like that online...unless u know the oud fits u.
i do recommend shehata ouds or some from our forums by haluk. but thats particular oud not even worth 200$.. good luck
