I am very happy with my oud. It arrived well packaged, wrapped, and in it's case. Upon opening and initial inspection I observed it was well made, it tuned easily, the tuning pegs turn with ease and the strings are great. The Mother of Pearl is beautiful and the finish on the oud looks wonderful. After playing it I really began to hear how wonderful it sounds. I took it a to my local luthier for a professional inspection and he said "it is well made" and "a beautiful piece of work." Thank you Daniel for taking care of an unforeseen delay at customs and being responsive and timely throughout the entire process. This is my second oud purchase form Ethnic Musical. I will continue to buy my ouds from Ethnic Musical and suggest others do as well because of the high quality instruments, professional service, and fine craftsmanship!
I bought teh real arab book Vol. 1 and I love it. A great collection of oriental music!
My hole experience dealing with Ethnic Musical was excellent. The quality of lavta, the quickness of shipping, the price, everything is worth at least 5 stars. We are talking about a premium company with premium products. The standard is very high.
Service, order shipment, communication everything was fine ! Best regards from Vienna
I am so blown away with every aspect of this finely crafted instrument. Everything was delivered on time and flawlessly. I also love the gig bag. If I ever consider an upgrade will definitely be back ISA.
