Haluk Eraydin
Hi, I saw a post on ebay for a Haluk oud numbered 34 but it does not look like one of his ouds. To me it looks like a cheap oud with a phony label.
Tried to copy and paste the label but no successful.

It will be interesting to see what information is added to this eBay listing. I presume the original information has been removed since you read that
it was numbered 34. The bone rosetttes are the same as used by Haluk and the bridge also looks like his and so too the purfling. Rather strange pegs,
but it looks to me to be a Haluk made instrument. Sadly, Haluk died in June 2010 and his son closed the business down.

Hi Greg, Something that throws me off is the beak, shaped like a cheap oud. The professional ouds I've seen all have carved beaks. Also there is no
date on the label. I've never owned a Haluk oud so I can not be sure. I have no interest in the instrument other than caution to anyone who may be
interested.
