Meet this brand new Oud. The Oud feels smaller because of the way it's build than it actually is, fits perfectly in any lap and has an especially open character.
When you play this Oud you'll know what I mean, the oud is absolutely unique, one of the best balanced instruments I've ever heard, refined and versatile. Because of the open structure of shellac, it's got a very open character whereby the freshness of the bass, even higher on the neck, are remarkable.
This oud has a 5A grade red cedar top with cedar braces.
Red Cedar
The Cedars and Redwoods do not develop dramatically over time like the Spruces. This is primarily because the Spruces contain resins that continue to dry and harden over many years. Cedar and Redwood don’t have resins and sound pretty well developed right off the bench. All Ouds will break in and develop regardless of resin content by virtue of playing and vibration through some magical realignment and relaxing of the wood fibers and molecules. All very scientific!
