Interesting video SamirCanada,
I kinda disagree though with one of the statments Yousif Salmeen made that the late Farid Atrash was the one who added the 6th string (pair) to the
oud, simply because Farid always played the 5 course oud, and I don't think I've ever seen him play a 6 course oud at all.
I love the old Salmeen ouds.........unique for their shallow bowl depth and skewed base, and superb sound quality.....(especially those of the late
Issa Salmeen, who passed away recently as Jassim pointed out)....really nice !
Hey by the way !! I hear my oud playing in the background of that video clip ! (Ya msafir wahdak and Ana Bintizarak) 
Regards,
