Khaled Azooz Electro-Acoustic Oud – Spalted Maple

Its beautiful spalted maple body immediately stands out thanks to its spectacular natural grain patterns and highly organic aesthetic. Each instrument therefore features a truly unique visual character.

The cedar top produces a warm, soft and responsive sound with excellent note definition and outstanding playing comfort. Cedar also provides quick response under the risha, particularly appreciated for modern amplified playing.

Thanks to its electro-acoustic design and compact format, this oud is perfectly suited for stage performance, studio work and musicians looking for a more ergonomic and transport-friendly oriental instrument.

The ebony fingerboard and ebony pegs ensure excellent tuning stability and playing comfort, while the integrated electronics provide simple and efficient amplification.

This model will appeal both to modern oriental musicians and guitar players wishing to explore the oud through a more accessible and ergonomic instrument.
