looking for oud


I am looking to buy a turkish oud. I live in Southern California and I would like to see an oud before I buy it. The oud I have now is a very bad one. Does anyone know an oud builder in the southern california area who builds turkish ouds. Thank You.

Oudidavid,

Where in SoCal do you live? If your close enough to L.A. (or in the San Fernando Valley), there may be some people around here that I know that have a few great Turkish ouds. I'll start checking around for you once you give me a location. :cool:

Hey man. We're all within about a 15-30 minute radius of each other. Some of the forum members live quite close to you, as does Wael Kakish (director of Kan Zaman and oud teacher/player) and Afif Taian.

No oud shops around here. There used to be one down in Santa Monica. I'll check with the guys from Kan Zaman to see if they have a decent one for sale. Hopefully, we can get you one.

Give John Belezikjian a call. He might have good one for sale and he's in Laguna Hills.
