Nice ... only the nut, the pegs and strings are missing ... and the varnishing. The pick guard is nice.
I bet Igor will love this oud.

Very beautiful instrument, though I would have expected ebony pegs, but the lemon looks interesting too.
I bet it will sound similar to mine.
I'm shure, that Igor will love it
