Hi Zalzal

Thanks for this link - what a fantastic resource! Do you know if it is possible to buy a printed copy of this thesis? I find it quite tiring to read on the screen.

Best wishes

David

I was reading and I found that he has developed a electrified oud wich you can see in pictures. He has made 3 versions they have a much shallower body and mechanical tuning heads. They were developed by a lebanese luthier named Georges Bitar. I have never heard of him but they dont sound too too bad. The only thing is that the mechanical tuning head makes the tuning a little too precise so that its rather odd to hear.
