Help identifying this oud (Nahat?)
Hi guys,
Can someone who knows Nahat labels and Arabic much better than me help identify this oud? Probably not by the Ikhwan Nahat (Abdo & Roufan), but
by Taoufiq and Iskender???
Thanks very much!

hi mavrothis,
for me it's a "nahat", very probably an "ikhwan nahat" but at there first period,
judging by the picgard, the design of the oud, the pegbox... but the bridge is changed... is it yours ? can you give an idea about the sound ?

Hi guys,
Unfortunately this is not my oud, I don't even know where it is located. A friend of mine sent me the pictures and asked me to help, so of course the
first thing I did was post here. I don't know the Nahat ouds very well, and my Arabic is not so good.
I will see if I can get a better picture of the label.
Thanks guys!

Hey Mav
The second and third words say Iskander wa (& Taufiq, first word may very well
say "shghl" - meaning work of. Nice looking oud

Thank you everyone, this is great help. Especially Dr. Sarikus and also Adel Salameh who gave me specific info on these makers and this oud.
I knew I would get the answers here and fast - thanks so much!
