Does anyone know where I can buy an Oud in Los Angeles?

I am interested in buying a good Oud but would like to find one in Los Angeles so I can see it and play it. Does anyone know of someone or even a music store that might have some? I am also interested in taking lessons. I am a good guitar player and have been a professional musician and want to learn this instrument.
Thanks,
James

Theres a guy called Ofadel on here who's been trying to sell a Oud for a while from around there. Look him up.

Dude...check with Viken Najarian -- najouds@aol.com, he might have something for sale. Also John Bilezikjian always has a variety of ouds for sale: http://www.dantzrecords.com has all his contact info. How about Johnathan Varjabedian -- check this thread -- http://www.mikeouds.com/messageboard/viewthread.php?tid=8076.

Good Luck...PaulO

I was about to say! Viken Najarian has beautiful ouds and is one of the finest makers! Definitely one of the nicest people you will meet as well!
