Egyptian Mosaic Pear shaped Oud, 11 Strings with Hard case. The body of this oud has the shape of a Bartlett Pear with smooth soft curves. The back of the bowl and the neck are fully covered with geometric mosaic of contrasting woods, white and black tiles and simulated Mother of Pearl accents. Under the mosaic the body has stave construction. The three round sound holes has carved rosette inserts and are rimmed by simulated Mother of Pearl inlay. The soundboard has a light finish. The Bridge is fixed. There are eleven strings in five courses of two and one single string (nylon, nylon wound and metal wound). The nut to bridge measures approximately 24 inches. Almost too pretty to play, you will want to display the mosaic to everyone. Over all dimensions are approximately 32 x 15 x 8 inches. Oud includes oud pick and case. The case has three locks and a hand grip, vinyl outside and cloth inside.
Scratch & Dent Savings!!! Repaired instruments are New and Unused with visible manufacture's repairs. The majority of repairs involve application of wood putty to amend irregularities in the wood or joints. There may also be cracks that have been repaired. Any structural repairs are complete and will be as strong, or stronger, than the original part. There may also be other superficial blemishes. The repair does not affect the playability or sound quality of the instrument. That makes these a great value.
