This Arabic oud by Khaled Azooz is a serious and expressive instrument, designed for musicians looking for a reliable oud with refined craftsmanship, quality woods and a strong visual identity. Made in Egypt, it offers a beautiful balance between sound quality, playing comfort and elegant oriental finishing. It is a very interesting choice for players who want an instrument that remains accessible, while offering a richer construction and a more refined presentation than a simple study oud.
Its figured sapele bowl gives the instrument a warm, full and well-structured tonal character. This wood is appreciated for its stability and balanced acoustic qualities, bringing beautiful midrange presence, good bass response and a homogeneous sound across the register.
The spruce soundboard adds clarity, projection and responsiveness under the hand. The oud speaks easily, with a clean attack and precise response, while keeping a natural warmth that makes it pleasant and expressive to play.
The ebony fingerboard and ebony pegs reinforce the seriousness of the construction. Ebony offers a comfortable playing feel, good precision under the fingers and better durability over time, while also contributing to tuning stability.
This model also stands out through its many mother-of-pearl marquetry details. The decoration around the rosettes, on the pickguard and along the edge of the soundboard gives the instrument a refined oriental appearance, elegant without being excessive.
With its figured sapele bowl, spruce soundboard, ebony fingerboard and pegs, and refined mother-of-pearl details, this Khaled Azooz oud is a beautiful choice for musicians looking for a reliable, expressive and visually elegant Arabic oud.
