Anybody want to trade an Oud for a nice Chinese Pipa?


I've got an extra instrument and need a new Oud so I am hoping someone would be interested in trading!

This is a professional soloist instrument, handmade in Shanghai by a reputable luthier shop. The body, upper frets, and tuning pegs are made from high grade Cambodian Dalbergia rosewood. The lower frets and bridge are dry cured bamboo and the face is Paulownia. For reference this instrument would normally cost around $1,000 USD, i'd be willing to trade for an Oud worth less than that.

Comes with hard case, extra strings, picks, and finger tape.


Fun fact: The Chinese Pipa is actually a distant descendant of the Oud!

And if you've never heard Gao Hong and Issam Rafea's Pipa and Oud duets check them out! : https://youtu.be/x4-3JRZK8JA
