Sitars for musicians by musicians!!
Welcome to the SITAR
page, we offer sitars by Srishti Musical, Hiren Roy, RA
Sitarmaker & Hemen (coming soon). Every instrument is
carefully monitored through each stage of production and air
shipped only. While we have access to nearly any maker in India,
we've chosen these few makers based on predictable superior
quality and tone. We have a long history with each maker and
regularly visit India every year to monitor progress on the
instruments. We go to an extreme degree that is unmatched
by anyone else to guarantee a very high quality instrument for
you!! Custom modifications are available from each maker
provided you're willing to wait for it. Otherwise, in stock
instruments will generally feature half closed jawari in the
case of Kharaj Pancham sitars or closed jawari for Vilayat Khan
style sitars. For detailed information about makers, etc. please
visit the Sitar information
page.
