S1 PRO
Feels like a quality made product but it seems like some things were overlooked before shipping it out. Would think everything would be 10/10 at this price point.. 1) 3keys are producing a high pitched buzzing in the background. My friend who is a lifelong musician noticed the highbuzz immediately... Said either they're dusty reeds or they're rubbing on the housing while playing so they need to be filled down a bit. 2) Didn't come with the foil bellows like the photograph

Exceptionally pleased!
I am so thrilled with the experience I have had purchasing my shruti box from Kala Kendar. The customer service was excellent at providing quick and thorough responses to my questions. The shipping was fast and reliable and the box arrived well packaged for transport. I love the long sustain of the box and the deeper tone of the G range. The box can be played quietly or loudly, which was an important factor for me. I would certainly purchase again from this shop and will recommend to others! Thank you!!
