looking for arabic oud hardcase


I have a morroccan oud but only a soft case wich provides no protection, I'm looking for a quality hardcase but I can't seem to find any. I live in Montréal, Québec (Canada) so if anyone could help me in my search I would be most gratefull.

Hi Franck,

Just a note on Richard's cases -- his workmanship is first rate, and the details (like the latches) are excellent. Good luck.

The cases are 1/4 inch plywood construction, simple but very strong. I sold one after 20 years of use with no damage. The hardware is riveted on, the covering is heavy gauge naugahyde (an endangered species, so it's getting expensive - fewer naugas every year.)
ahem,. thanks for the plug, Paul, the check is in the mail.
