Here is my new oud "Ayami" built by Mr. Ghadban.

Beautiful oud! Congratulations. What kind of wood is the top made from?

Bartolus - 5-8-2006 at 09:07 AM

Best kind of cedar.

Hi Bartolus. The oud sounds beautiful even on the MP3 file. I sent you a u2u.

Cheers,
Roy

I know that there has been some discussion about the differences between spruce and cedar, but I'd be interested in hearing more. If nothing else, does anyone else find the cedar top on this oud by Mr. Ghadban beautiful in an unusual way. I have never seen this pattern of grain before in a top.

I agree Roy, very nice face. Looks very personal. As if someone cut a tree in their backyard and made a oud out of it.
