Hello Haluk! The new tuners you are using look very nice, and they do not seem to detract from the overall aesthetic look of the instrument. It is
nice to be able to offer today's modern musicians an option of a traditional or modern look. All the best!

Hi Mr. Haluk,
Which woods are you using on electric ouds?
Is it possible to make them from Ebony wood?
How much will be the shipping cost to New York U.S.?
Thank you for your time.
Regards.
Artin

Hi Artin,
We use Mahagony wood generally.
Sometimes Padauk or Spruce woods also.
Ebony is a hard and heavy wood,not appropriate for electric oud.It will be very heavy hard to carry it.
Only pegs and fingerboards are made from Ebony wood.
We can mention shipping cost as your full postal address.
Regards.
