Hello Allexandris,
Your TT oud is good looking and sounds good.
I have one which is 44,7 string length, you can see it here http://www.mikeouds.com/messageboard/viewthread.php?tid=11140#pid76...
I have not find the good set of strings for it. The last one I tried is the Pyramid 665/11, very good bass, long sustain, but I'm not satisfied with
the nylon G and C.
What do you use for our toy oud ?
Keep on the work, great music you're playing.

Short neck is not a problen at all , think about the violin..... Dimitris , the gay ho plays the T T oud in the video , he started to play on it , for
a first tine , about 15 minuts before the recording....

Hello...44,7 ... I had in stock a forgoten set of LA BELLA turkish oud strings and I decided to use it for the T T . It is OK for the moment , and I
like the fackt that the low tension that comes from the tuning that I use gives better low frequencys . The only string that I do ' t like as mutch
as the others is the D string whitch I will replace with a PVF string as soon as I get some .

Hello my friend!
What a pleasure to play this little ''monster'' I can't believe what enourmous sound and colour it had even thought it is so small! It's funny but it
had a canun like sound which amazed me!!
Some time in the near future i am sure that you are going to make one like this for me too! I fell in love with it!
Thank you for the pleasure Jannis!
Να 'σαι πάντα καλά Γιάννη να
δημιουργείς!!!
