Thanks a lot guys,
And yes it is an electric, a Najarian actually. I would think it is kind of like Nihavent. I am from the Turkish/Armenian style of playing. I have been playing oud for about 4 years or so and im only 18 so i have a lot of learning to do still. I tried recording with my acoustic oud but it just sucks since it is a very cheap Turkish tourist oud. Well, please everyone comment and criticize i know it will help me so please feel free. And thank you Mike for posting it for me.
Take care everyone.

Hi David,

Sounding good dude. Nice and clean, excelent intonation, and picking. You're doing well, do you play guitar as well ?? Your settings for the Najarian sound about as "oud-like" as I've heard. Keep playing dude, now's the time to get the work in -- you studying with anybody ?

Regards...PaulO
