I recently bought an oud from Sadettin Sandi (Cankaya Muzik Evi) and began to notice--what I would consider--major fret buzz on the second set of
stings from the bottom: one of the unwound ones. I have talked to a couple of oud players here in Istanbul, and they tell me that fret buzz is quite
normal with ouds. However, I find the sound of the string a little beyond normal as it rather makes a snappy like buzz. In your opinion, is this
normal and expected? Also, is there any possible way that I can have this problem fixed.
Any information you could give will be greatly appreciated.
