Any advice!


When the oud falls the peg box is the first victim.
Any advise before I glue this weak part of the oud.

this is not a big deal, it happens. The wood is not broken, just glued - out.
take it easy

Hi mrkmni.

Just make sure that the surfaces are clean and free of glue residue before re gluing and clamp with small clamps to keep even pressure and pegbox/fingerboard alingned. use cauls of soft wood/cork/rubber to protect the fingerboard. this should set well wthin 48 hrs if temp and humidity are ok. Then re string and bring upto normal tension gradually checking for any movement/gaps.

Hope the fix goes ok.
