I just checked out his page (that guy jens ritter) he does some pretty interesting work... but for al-oud, keep it in the soul, we dont need no
diamonds to make something beautiful.
Melbourne, I agree with you- the gulf makes me sick sometimes... we dont need another vegas, you know? people in the region starve and are diplaced
and this oud is up for $600,000++. seriously something wrong with that picture.

Off course it's a joke to have an oud full of diamond and gold; but I like the idea of making an oud from metalic material; I wonder what is the
nature of sound from it? mabe like (Jumbush)?
Did anybody try to make something similar?

I wonder what others like Steve Vai, Michale Angelo de Batio, Eric johnson and Yngwie Malmsteen has to say about his guitar?
Wonder what kind of Testimonials would Britney, Christina & Madona can give? "Ooooohhhhh baby that guitarsure looks good and sexy!"
Again, Food for thought!

RabeekaFina is interested in an oud made from metal. When working as a full time heritage tinsmith, prior to retirement, I did build a full sized
guitar (based on a - wooden(!) - 19th C French instrument by Grobert) in tinplate and brass - just for exhibition purposes. I have since been thinking
about building a lute in tinplate - just for fun and to demonstrate tinsmithing skills - but a tinplate oud would be an interesting alternative
project instead. Will see what I can do in the New Year as I am currently busy with other (non oud) instrument restoration projects. I don't
anticipate that the sound will be up to much, however - different perhaps! I will eventually post the results but don't expect any jewelled
decoration!
