GeorgeK here is your Oud


Hi George,

Surprise!!! you didnt think I would put up on here did ya???

I fixed up your oud.

this is what I did.

I fixed the crack in the back with hide glue. and put pressure with some magnets along the seam to keep it tight.
then I scraped and refinished the seam.

I made a new nut of ebony.
I changed the strings to Aquila light.

I made a new pick guard with inlay ( thanks Jameel ;)
I finally I took off the lacquer that was on the face.

here are the pics.
I am working on a sound sample buddy...
your going to LOVE the new sound.
