"In our culture we have such respect for musical instruments, they are like part of God."
~Ravi Shankar~
The Master Sitar player's famous quote embodies the quality with which our sitars are forged. Pieces are hand selected and individual sitars are discarded if they fail to meet quality inspection before being sent to you. Each sitar represents our dedication to crafting the highest quality musical instruments for your need.
This Ravi Shankar style sitar is made with a single tumba, 7 main strings and 13 sympathetic strings. The craftsmanship on this sitar is unparalleled and has a beautifully engraved toomba and danda (neck). The sitar is made of Tun wood and is very resistant to weather-warping and provides a rich and consistent sound.
