Turkish Ouds
Does anyone know if the turkish ouds made by Sandi or Mehmet and available on this website
http://www.instrumentalsavings.com/SearchResults.asp?cat=235&Cl...
are of decent quality? I have been playing for two years
Thanks

If the Saadettin Sandi ouds are genuine, then this is an exceptionally good price. Saadettin Sandi is made to sound like a father and son workshop. In
fact, Saadettin Sandi is the owner of Cankaya music, a large Turkish musical instrument manufacturer with several (5) retail outlets. http://www.cankayamuzikevi.com/frameset.htm
Cankaya's instruments are good quality and sell, even in Turkey, for considerably more than the prices shown on the lower priced Sandis on the website
you have listed. If these ouds are genuine, then the prices would appear to be very good.
I would suggest you email Cankaya and ask if the ouds are of their manufacture and, if so, if they are of reasonable quality.
