Ghadban oud for sale

Meursault - 11-6-2008 at 08:02 AM

It is with some regret that I have elected to sell my Ghadban Mawsili oud.

The price is $2,000 (firm). This includes the oud, which is in the same pristine condition in which I received it, a red Khalaf soft case, and 11 Pegheds tuners, which I had installed. The tuners use the same heads as the paris eye tuning pegs you see in the photos linked below, but with aluminum shafts and planetary gears inside. The 12th peg was not converted.

Photos and a sound file:

I would prefer to sell to somebody in the U.S., so as to avoid the hassle of customs and international shipping.

If interested, please contact me at keithdhodges@hotmail.com

Good luck with the sale....
I wish I could buy it but I am sure it will go to someone who will apreciate it.

I remember when you got the oud and when it was on Nazih's page.
I was just amazed at it. The sound is wonderfull and the construction is top notch.

oh well...
all the best.
