Beautiful oud, and good price!
I would definatly have bought it if it were turkish size : )
p.s. It looks to me on the pictures that it has normal pegs!!
Maybe you ought to post a new picture of the oud!?
Good luck with the selling..

Do you have a more recent sound file?
West - 8-26-2009 at 07:17 AM
Those are the pegs . . .
Sorry, that's the only sound file I've got. It's hardly been played since then. I thought I would play more, but I turned to other instruments
instead. Trust me, you don't want to hear me play anyway

sent you a U2u with some questions. Let me know,

Hey, is the oud actually in MI?
MatthewW - 8-26-2009 at 09:46 AM
Hi lads- that is a very good price for an oud by Nazih if it's in excellent condition, and with case. I wouldn't worry too much about sound files- if
it's one of Nazih's you can be sure it sounds nice, especially at this price.
regards, MW

Well After 3 years of visiting Nazih Ghadban's website and dreaming of the day I will visit Lebanon again, (after been rushed out of the country by
war and not being able to buy the one I saw in Galery Sem3an in 2006).
I just pressed the "Buy it Now" button 5 minutes ago, I am very skeptical about buying stuff online and the price made me even more uncomfortable,
but after tossing and turning all night and not concentrating at work all day, I got home, and bought the damn thing.
I really really hope it is as it says and nothing goes wrong. Because I dont think I have pursued women for 1% of the time I spent admiring Nazih
instruments.. the effect will be very heartbreaking.

Hey, Fadi, I know the feeling of buying an oud online, if you're anything like me you will have more sleepless nights tossing and turning until you
get it in your eager hands! 
It looks like a wonderful oud, I hope all
goes well for you, and I'm sure you will enjoy it.
Mabrouk Fadi!
Luttgutt - 8-27-2009 at 02:23 AM
As I wrote before, I think this is the bye of the year : )
And I agree with Matthew, if the cases are included, then this the the bye og the century 
Alf mabrouk
I hope all goes well with the shipping

I went to the isold it store and checked this oud out. It is in excellent condition.
I would not have let this get past me if I had some money on me!
Christian1095 - 8-27-2009 at 04:51 AM
My advice is to pay another 50-60 bucks and have them overnight it to you. The less time this thing is in a box, the more likely it will arrive for
you.
Much like the other folks who've commented here, I think you might have bought the oud of the year... That price was awesome! If I had the $$$$ I
would have bought it. But my wife might kill me if I bought another oud so soon after the Shehata. 
I'll be thinking positive thoughts for the Ouds journey for ya!
fhalaw - 8-27-2009 at 05:09 AM
Thanks everybody for the happy wishes! Will post a sound file whenever I get it. 3oudi, I am still on a student budget dude. Too bad I will need to
dish out an extra 200 for Canadian customs.

SamirCanada - 8-27-2009 at 01:34 PM
mabrouk Fadi.
see you soon inshallah! I wanna see this baby
how about I let you play with mine if you let me.... huh.... this sounds like something Ron Jeremy would say.
anyways I am happy for you man.
fhalaw - 8-27-2009 at 03:20 PM
Sure man, I hope it will get here before next friday.
Be happy for me when it comes in one piece .
thanks
fernandraynaud - 8-28-2009 at 03:11 AM
You worried? OK, tell you what, I'm willing to take on the whole problem, plus pay you something for your troubles. Wanna make a deal? Seriously, you
can tell that West is not the sort of person who w'oud have it shipped unsafely or for there to be anything wrong with it.
That oud used to belong to me.
Meursault - 8-29-2009 at 06:01 PM
I had Nazih custom-make it according to my specs. It's an outstanding oud, by the way.
If the current owner is the guy I sold it to, he's very reputable.
