Ramazan - oud maker in Istanbul


I found this blog about Ramazan, an oud maker I've heard great things about while in Greece. Don't have much in terms of contact info, but I thought you might enjoy this. Notice the interesting bracing layout and also his choice of bowl woods.

Great to see something on him. I know his name has been mentioned on these boards in the past, but not too much information was given.
I can't seem to find part one of the story on Ramazan, although there is a follow up in the following month's archive.

Hi,

If you search "oud" in the author's blog, you will find several entries about Ramazan. There are three in total I think.

I need to get to Istanbul sometime... :)
