Description
Product Details

This oud is intended for musicians seeking an instrument that combines the resonance and projection of Turkish ouds with the roundness and depth characteristic of Arabic models. It is an excellent choice for players wishing to progress toward a more expressive, versatile and responsive oud.

The bowl, made from wenge and maple, combines two woods with complementary acoustic behavior.
Wenge provides stability, density and depth, while maple contributes clarity, projection and a balanced response across the mid and high registers. This combination results in a full, round and well-structured timbre while maintaining excellent note definition.

The cedar soundboard plays a central role in the tonal identity of this model. It brings warmth, playing flexibility and immediate responsiveness, producing a highly resonant sound with plenty of roundness and a sensation of a dense and “heavy” tone, without ever losing clarity.

The ebony fingerboard and rosewood tuning pegs ensure excellent durability, reliable tuning stability and comfortable playability, even during long playing sessions.

This Sultan oud stands out for its versatility, generous resonance and sonic balance, making it a very relevant instrument for intermediate to advanced musicians looking for a performant, musical and accessible oud.

The oud is delivered with a lightly padded soft case, ideal for daily transport, as well as 3 rishas (plectra).
