alright all you oud-nutters out there!
because of the poor turn-out and lack of convincing answers the elderly council of littleseb international headquarters has decided to extend the
qualification process by another 24 hours.
answers and guesses are now to be posted in writing on this very thread no later than 8pm gmt 16th oct 2011.
in the unlikely event of not having received the correct answer by the time and date stated above the jackpot of 10 bonus points will kindly be
donated to the admin team of mike's oud forum.
good luck!

Three guesses each eh? Well.
1. You recently inherited a house with a big, dry basement. Tax free, of course.
2. In that basement you have found three originally faced ouds, strongly cased and in prime condition—a 1955 Karibyan, a 1910 Manol, and a pre-1900
Nahat.
3. You have suddenly and spontaneously begun to grow tail feathers. Turkish eagle tail feathers that is, and you are all set to make your fortune
offering rare mizraps.
Out side of a blessed baby, these would be pretty good runner ups.

3. I am a car guy so I am gonna say, you got a BMW M3 coupe

hip-hip-hurray, we've got a winner!
8 bonus points for you (sorry, 2 already went to samir for guessing another event)
WELL DONE!
i agreed on a al-dmashky floating bridge oud. beautiful wood, reasonably priced, and, above all, great sounding. it's got a small-ish, almost
turkish-sized bowl and, well, a floating bridge, which i always wanted. i could never make up my mind wether i preferred turkish or arabic, so here's
the best of both worlds. the sustain is incredible. you plug the string, it goes 'eeeeeeeeee', you go off, grab a bite, come back, still
'eeeeeeee'.
will post pics and sounds once i've paid for it in full.
