What do you think about this oud?
Can anybody recognize the maker of this oud? The seller just says it comes from Tunisia.
Thank u all guys, ciao, Giuseppe.

RE: The neck
The neck of that oud seems longer than normal, or is it just me imagining?
Kind Regards,

ciao peppeo -
the sound board seems to have a glossy finish to it - i've always understood that to be a no-no.
it's difficult to judge how something will sound, based on photos but if you're interested, i would advise you to ask for more detailed photos - the
peg box in particular.
just my opinion but i think he's asking too much money for it.
ciao - bill

This looks like a good oud. The soundboard is finished but it seems like the finish used is of good quality. Like the ones you would find on a good
quality guitar. It also doesnt look like the finish is too too thick.
The workmanship of it reminds me of the Hijazi ( higazi) ouds from Alexandria posted here.
