I saw this. I wouldn't bid on anything sold by someone with ZERO feedback. I e-mailed the seller and it bounced back. Go figure....

Good catch, Jameelo. The guy's gonna be banking a lot of money, though. Almost 2000.

Check that under Ronny's "a Syrian for the eye"... I thought the oud looked familiar!

http://www.emmaz.net sells the same exact oud for much less!! It's in Japanese but you can navigate by looking at your status bar.

Regarding those images that Ronny post at http://www.mikeouds.com/messageboard/viewthread.php?tid=544&pag... I think its taken from that Japanese site at http://www.emmaz.net :) Surprisingly he said that the owner want to keep it a secret :D

Wow. This Japanese merchant offers quite a selection. I've never seen such a great selection of ouds and accessories from great makers. I just wonder how popular the oud is in Japan? Anyone really know? You would think with the significant Arab population here in the USA, there would be a similar mechant. Interesting! There's even a link there for Mike's site!

The interest in Arabic music in Japan includes professors of music ethnocology:

professional players and at least one builder who has my book.

If you ask the Japanese owner then you would know. You are pretty boring with your childish attitude.
