Two Question...

First: Haluk Do you use Acoustic Matrix Natural 1 or 2 from Fishman as a pickup? Is the sound ok in your opinion?

Second: Im wondering.This Design isnt a copyright from Najarian? He could ask for money also? Or im wrong?

We use Fishman picups.Sound is like natural sound of oud.On some electric instruments,sound is different from plain instrument.The sound file attached.
The design is not a copy from Najarian or some other producers.

Regards all.

Hello Haluk. First of all, I love that oud! Can you give me a describtion of that oud? Is the body like the body of an electric guitar? Can it be played without an amplifier? I really love that sound! Thanks for the sound file. It deffinately grabbed my attention, but I don't have the money to order it right away. I will deffinately consider bying that style of oud in the future. Keep it up man!

Hi wfspark :wavey:

I agree with you, it does sound good not 100% natural oud though but very close.

I believe it will not come up with any sound when it's not connected to an amplifier. Electric guitars give some sound because strings are metal I do not think oud strings will do.

Hi William and Emad,
It is like electric guitars.Thickness is 3 cms., with belt ,weigh is 1.500 kgs.It can be play without amplifier but the voice is low.We have prepared the sound file with an amateur amplifier.
