Question_To_Turkish_Oud_Experts
Hi My Friends,
My relative got an offer to exchange his oud by a turkish oud, both ouds are old and need work and both have great sound.
But he doesn't have enough knowlege about turkish ouds neither do I.
I will post some pictures of the turkish oud, any advice would be appreciated.
thank you

The writing on the label looks too faded to read clearly, except for the date (1920). You might try taking a couple more pictures. The words on the
strips of paper inside the bowl are in Ottoman Turkish (for example, "vergi," meaning tax, "para," which was a currency at the time).

Hi Faladel,
Thank you very much for your help.
Do I tel my relative to accept the offer?
My relative oud is made by Sabah Sherbajee around 1920, but Mahmoud Safi restored the oud around 1950 and put his lable on the lable of Sabah
Sherbajee.
Sabah Sherbajee ouds are better than Nahat's, but Nahat is more famous.
Any advice would be appreciated.
thank you again

The name of the maker Sabah Sherbajee is carved on the rosette inside the star.

Marhaba Faladel,
Sabah Sherbajee Oud is for my relative, but the turkish oud is for another guy and he wants to exchange, that is, he wants to give my relative the
turkish oud and take Sabah Sherbajee Oud.
What oud is better, Sabah Sherbajee or the turkish oud?
Do you think it is a good idea if my relative accept the offer? do you have an idea about the price of each?
Salamat
