syrian oud makers
Habib Abyad or Mouneer Eysa
Does someone know something of these oud makers?
I think they are from Aleppo...
Has someone any picks of their ouds?

I have a beautiful GEM by Samir Azar too. It is one of the finest instruments I have ever seen.
In terms of workmanship, it is perfect. In terms of sounds, it is magic. The more I play it, the more I fall in love with it.
Check the link below. I do apologize for posting it several times. I am just too proud of it.

Hi Damascene_Oud,
Samir lives in Homs, Syria. He builds the ouds by himself. Samir is a civil engineer, but he is a very talented luthier.
I believe that he is one of the best luthiers around.
You may contact Samir via email:
samiraz@scs-net.org
Good luck,
Hatem
