The oudproffs dvd is IMHO the BEST thing you could lays your hands on to learn the oud,perhaps even more especially as a beginner.
Do a search on the forum for it and read the reviews for it.
My advice get it and enjoy.

I think Oud.Proff's DVD is awesome. Just last night I was searching through the Maqams on his DVD, finding new ones and playing them... the only thing close to the DVD, is http://www.maqamworld.com but maqamworld doesn't show you finger psoitions and explain certain things which are explained in his DVD, but yes, why not ask him directly, he's a friendly guy!! :)
