Selling my Gimbri/Sintir

Hey Guys- going through some financial things right now so I'm parting with my Gimbri... I love it but it's the one thing I'm willing to sell...

It's a folk instrument- It's not what we would call professional, but it has a great sound when mic'd right and it's a lot of fun to play. Gut strings are tied and hammered, with a sort of pulley system for tunning. Gold trim around the edge of the camel-skin resonator.

This is a Moroccan Gimbri- although some have called it a Sintir... My friend Hisham who sold it to me called it Gimbri (and he's Maghrebi) so thats what I'll call it.

I'm asking for $320

hi excentrik- ever notice the similarity between the shape of the Gimbri and some older lap steel guitars-

it is a trip huh? nobody likes my gimbri

Hello Tarik. I like your gimbri, it looks very "roots" but I'm centred only on oud for the moment; three under the same roof... then would be one too many!
Do you sell your bicycle?

hey Tarik- how much do you want for the gimbri, bicycle and the stool?... I'm sure someone will buy it sooner or later! have you tried ebay?
