Hello AHMEDJ,

I have recently visited Dr. Sarikus in Istanbul and played many of his ouds. All I can say is that they were outstanding, the sound is truly excellent and very loud. The tones were very clear and distinct. The floating bridge ouds had an awesome resonance and the fixed bridge ones were quite similar. Apart from that, the finish is excellent and the action is low and the ouds are a joy to play. He makes arabic ouds as well.

Dr. Sarikus and his Son Veyzel were very hospitable and honest and I am sure they can answer all your questions if you contact them directly.

FF.
