Wow...quite a craftsman and artisan.

Thanks for sharing!

Always fascinating!

My first real introduction to the oud was through one of Jameel's (Bench Crafted) websites. A beautiful instrument.

Both his woodworking and playing are GREAT! Beautiful!

Liked the way he used a plane to trim the glue up 'slats'.

Does Jameel still make ouds? I thought he suspended doing that to concentrate on his Benchcrafted business. The most recent post on his luthier website is 2012. He has had some recent articles on inlay work published in Popular Woodworking, which leads me to believe he's still doing some related work.
Still Learning,
