Hi all!!
After some time saving money I'll buy a new oud.
I don't know what to do...Sukar, Shehata or Sabsaby,
i'll go to Syria in 1 week, but really I dont know, what do you think?
what can you say about the best Sukar models?
and Sabasaby? anyone can say anything about sabsaby's ouds?
About shehata, is it better for the price contact with maurice or buy it via nileshop?
Thanks in advance

Hi michoud- here is a recent posting with some info about Shehata's shop which might be useful.

When you are in Syria and visitng oud makers there you'll probably come across an oud that strikes a special note with you...and if I'm not mistaken a
little haggling over price wouldn't be out of place! good luck!
