I've been practising playing the oud for the last month, a wonderful instrument that's similar to a lute but with a deeper body and fretless neck.
I haven't learned an actual song yet but it's very fun to improvise on. The sound is very expressive, like a fretless bass but higher and easier to play chord on.
The video editor widened the image for some reason, sorry about that.
It was filmed with a Sony a77 camera, Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 lens, and recorded through a mic in Cubase.
