Zou is right, it is a 8 years old Ghadban oud with a very unusual copper rosette

Is -it this oud which is played on Ziad 's Myspace?
I'd like to see a picture showing the whole oud, someone has a link?
And may be you know if Nazih Ghadban still build this model ?
Thanks!

Yes this the oud he uses in concerts and studio recordings, his other oud is also a Ghadban without rosettes.
Nazih makes ouds mostly on order, he always has 2 or 3 ouds "in stock" but I think that he can make any of his old models, may be not the exact same
bowl as I know that he has some molds that he doesn't want to use anymore.
You can talk directly to him, his phone number is on his website, and he speaks French.
The rosette design on Ziad's oud is very nice, personally I don't like the metal look, but others like it, it is really a matter of taste.
