hey martan
Ma ya"niam?
ok this is the way the make goes i think . his ouds are bascily made mass productive they keep makign to make money, they are really hit or miss, i
have 2 made by him andthey were both a hit they sound great and i am happy with them . some of them have very thick faces so u have to watch out for
it , i know that i have the exact same oud and modal that ahmed quseem played the adani master, so there not that bad.
where did u get it in israel and how much you pay . if you dont mind me asking ,
can u post a pic of front and back
kol tov

Sammy Shalom
The bad news is I am in London till 23rd of this month so I cant sent you and pics till I get back to Eilat.
Would you belive I found the oud in Eilat from a guy who lives near me he is a oud player from Morroco.Learnt from his farther..unbleavable luck for
me ,as i now have somebody in eilat who is on the same wave lenght.
He has a collection of 5 ouds.
I paid
him 100$ he wanted 200 but it needs a little work on it cleaning ect,ect but all the strings are new and the the final sound is just what I have been
looking for. Shabbat shalom Martin

info needed
Sammy Ma Ya "yanim"booka tov
Enclosed are a couple of pictures after my restoration.
I am really happy with the instrument,but a little more work is needed ie;filler on the face board ect,ect
but it souds good.
Had to re string 1 and 2 (broke on re tuning)but otherwise a great purchase.
I now have 2 ouds in the family 1 Arbic tuned and 1 Turkish tuned.The turkish oud will need some work on it ,but I am learning about hide glue and
laquers ect ,40 deg today must keep the humiderfier on other wise big TROUBLE
