hey guys
i have recently bought an oud which was made by the late "Najm Abbood"
unfortunately the oud is damaged ( the face of the oud is missing )
and i want to repear it .
as fare as i know the bowl is made from Indiana rosewood/Walnut wood combinations
but i don't any idea which wood was used to make the face of the oud or how did it look like . at the end of the Fingerboard
there is a decoration ( you can see it in the pix)
so guys if you have any idea which wood najem abbood used for his ouds or pictures from his ouds i will be happy to get them

thanks
