Oud Burak Yilmaz Zebrano

Its zebrano wood bowl stands out for its spectacular, high-contrast grain, giving the instrument a distinctive and refined visual identity. Beyond its unique look, zebrano contributes to clear projection and definition, with strong presence in the midrange and excellent articulation.

The spruce soundboard, carefully selected, delivers fast response, precise projection and rich harmonic content. The combination of zebrano and spruce produces a sound that is balanced, bright, expressive and tightly controlled.

The ebony fingerboard and ebony pegs ensure excellent tuning stability, long-term durability and professional playing comfort. Every detail reflects the luthier’s know-how and the attention given to the instrument’s overall balance.

This Burak Yilmaz oud offers a full, precise and responsive tone, with excellent attack definition and beautiful depth in the lows. It is equally suited to solo playing and accompaniment, in traditional or contemporary contexts.

The instrument is supplied with a padded gig bag for reliable protection during transport and storage.
