Selling my hollow body electric


Hi,

I have decided to sell my hollow body electric oud. Here is a link with lots of info:

http://www.mikeouds.com/messageboard/viewthread.php?tid=11349#pid77885

My performing has just fizzled away over the last year or so. I know it will make the next owner happy.

The price is $1350 including a padded guitar gig bag that works pretty well, not including shipping. This price is well below what this instrument costs new from Drew Bradshaw's workshop. Everything from the woods to the tuning machines are top of the line, and this light-weight oud sounds and looks great.

I'll try and upload a better video or two for you soon.

If you are interested, please email me at: info@maeandros.com

Thank you,

Mavrothi

Hi Mav

Have been listening to various stuff tonight including your good self. I can,t believe they are not snapping you up, you have one of the sweetest, most genuine ways of playing I've heard in a long time, and I noticed this from years ago when footage from some of Mike's oud meetings were posted.

I don't say this lightly, my ears outdo my playing

:)

Hi,

Here is a short video showing the good acoustic sound and projection of this hollow body electric oud:

If you make sure not to dampen the back of the oud much with your body, it really sings.

Thanks,

Mavrothi

Hi,

No, but you should contact Drew Bradshaw, he'll make you a beautiful instrument.
