Description
Product Details

The soundboard is made of cedar, a wood highly appreciated for its warmth, sensitivity and expressive richness. It provides quick response, beautiful tonal depth and great musicality from the very first notes.

The bowl is made of gumwood, a wood with spectacular natural grain that gives the instrument a noble, organic and highly distinctive appearance. This bowl also contributes to the harmonic richness of the oud, bringing depth, roundness and resonance.

The decorative work is especially refined: the rosettes are delicate, elegant and beautifully crafted, enhanced by subtle ornaments around the soundholes. The result is a very high-end visual presence, refined without excess, blending traditional spirit with contemporary elegance.

The fingerboard and pegs are made of ebony, a dense and durable wood that ensures tuning stability, playing precision and excellent longevity.

This oud comes fitted with professional Kürschner strings in low Arabic C-C tuning, offering a balanced response, beautiful depth in the bass and great expressiveness.

Thanks to its balance between power, resonance and refined craftsmanship, this model is perfectly suited for demanding musicians looking for a high-end Turkish oud, equally at home in solo performance, on stage or in the studio.
