Made from solid seasoned Burmese teak and hand polished in a natural matte finish; specifically chosen for their acoustic properties. They are fitted with the finest grade copper tip reeds to produce a clear, detailed and harmonious tone. Small variations in the wood grain and colour add to a unique individual character. Every detail of our instruments, including precision mechanical parts, have been developed and refined for function, beauty and tone. All fittings (plates) have been completed with brass, including the screws, a very nice enhancement.
Designed in Canada, built in India. It's about time we started creating instruments specifically for our North American customers.

A good basic introductory book on the Sitar - from India
st about as good as a book costing twice the price - but without a CD. This book has lots of pictures and diagrams for the complete novice - including tuning instructions and wonderful explanations of Indian music system and it's history as a bonus. Good foundation scales to get started.
