Authentic Faik Mohammed Fadhel Oud???
I was wondering if anyone could shed light on the authenticity of this oud. The tag says made in 1980 by Fadhel and sons. Pictures are attached!

I can ensure you that thius is not mohammed fathel's oud, it can be just labeled for easy sale.

I support the above posters, it's an obvious fake.

Hey guys, does anyone know by chance the prices of Faiq? Has anyone ordered from him recently? I'm about calling him but it would be nice to know
ahead of time, thanks

hi,
I dont know about the prices. But the best iraqi oud liether (in my opinion) is Yaroub Mohammad Fadel. I dont have his contact number but i do have
his email. Jihad is very good, i have tried his oud and i dont know about the prices.
In kuwait, there is great oud leither, iraqi style, and he is a member in this forum, under nick name "Ahmad maker". he have videos in youtube.
Thanks

Well at the moment Foad jihad sons are the best oud maker in iraq and in the middleast in my opnion I have a big collection of iraqi ouds(including
mohmad fadeloud, najim aboud,fawzi munshid and fares oad jihad) but my favouret one is the oud that is made by fares. Mohmad fadel sons(fayeq and
yaroub) are good makers but their prices is always high i guess they are relying on their fathers reputation and they are abusing his name.
