Hi Samir,

is it a Sukar oud, or am I seeing doubles?

It seems today I am seeing every oud as a Sukar!!!

best regards

Awad

Looks like a Sukar if you look fast but its not.
If you look at the brige you can tell. Also the pickguard isnt the same as Sukar ouds.
Its probably made by Salmeen or by another one of those Khaleeji oud makers.

But indeed nobody is playing oud on this clip. These lebanese chicks were so busy all their lifes to worry about make up and going out, that's why they probably didn't have the time nor the will to try to delve into the oud world..

At least it shows the good news that oud is fashionable there, not like in Europe or the US: you wouldn't have indeed a clip of Beyonce or Britney Spears with an oud in it!

I think this is a Sabsaby oud. Its very characteristic of his instruments.
