Deoxit Faderlube is your new best friend, not F5. D5 is a corrosion remover, and pretty much relieves the pot of any “grease” the manufacturer stuck in there. Well known audio pot trick is D5...
I’m also interested in exploring the oud, Jim. I have been studying flamenco guitar for about the past year, and I’m really drawn to Arabic-influenced music. But, I have never picked up an oud and...
I've got one, a Turkish bowl back, lower performance level model. I love it. I don't know what the best way for you to start is but I began by learning basic Makam (scales like ragas) and training...

Study notes for Project 4-A. These are some points based upon questions and observations you've provided in the past weeks. I'd suggest that you look at the changes, and internalize them to the best...
Great description Vinny! Its a shame we don't hear more about his instruments. His workmanship and price point seem like a tremendous value - especially for a US Luthier built guitar. Sent from...
I've played a bit, cause I love oud music, Turkish and especially Arabic. Had flatmates for years that played a lot. You have a headstart when already a guitar player, although picking is different...
Week 8. Monday. Weekly goal 96 played with TRIPLETS. Here we are at the second phase of our journey. The piece this project 4-A is based upon is that all iconic All The Things You Are. Do keep...
