I was wondering what people's experiences have been like with Ibraham Sukkar ouds. I know that they are held in high regard, but I would like to hear
from some people who own his ouds. What kind of problems did you have, if any, what are the strengths, attention to detail etc.

IMO Sukar ouds have the most authentic arabic sound. In General the pegs he uses are not of good quality. But that can be fixed easily by replacing
them. Also he's somewhat of a newcomer in the oud world but already if you everwatch Arabic Satelite chanels like ( télélumière or noursat) as well
as many other chanels I would say that 1 out of 2 ouds I see on tv played by professionals are from Sukar. So that cant be a bad thing. The prices he
charges are also verry affordable. His attention to detail isnt of the highest quality but his ouds are simple enough not to be concerned with fine
details.
I wonder what others think...

Thanks samir, I was hoping for a little more feedback from people on this one.
