Maybe a strange question...
I just bought a new digital balance for the kitchen and I weigh every object around me... then my oud.
Mine is 875 gr or 2.34 lb (pound).
And yours ?oudipoet - 5-13-2007 at 12:18 PM

Microber's balance must have dropped through a hole in space-time from an alternate universe - there are 454 grams in a pound.billkilpatrick - 5-14-2007 at 12:46 AM

840 gms for my syrian cheapy and 946 gms for my egyptian.
i wonder if there's an ideal "bench-mark" weight for each of the oud making traditions ...?

Jack,
I went on an online web converter. I think that indeed i went to the strange world of the people who use pounds and onces. I should have stay 'at
home' with my 'grammes'.
The converter of Oudipoet is also strange, isn't it ?
I forget to mention that my oud is a Turkish oud from çankaya.
