HI,
I've just got my first oud.. a second hand bargin, it's Syrian quite old made in 1964 i think.. it's cleaned up very well. sounds very good very ornate, but a little rough in other parts of it's finnish, it's missing a couple of tunning pegs ones been replaces by a violin peg but it's not very effective, does any one know where i can buy some new pegs and allso sets of Strings in London ?
Thanks

Hi Kristian

In regard of the "effectiveless violin peg" that you have maybe you can visit my website and find a lil of information on how to improve the pegs and to maintain it-its under the Oud FAQ section-thank you!
