Naeem Sitarmaker Concert Sitar

Kalamor style decoration

Ravi Shankar style setup ~ all inlaid

Another surprise from Naeem and family, in the works for a long time.... Features a fully inlaid peacock design with no carving. The inlay is done specially using materials and methods no one else in India does.. Sounds as good as it looks of course, this one more on the darker side tonally with ebony bridges.

7 main strings and 13 sympathetics featuring a 3/4 open jawari in the style of Pandit Ravi Shankar. All natural materials for nuts/bridges. Nuts (Meru), all tuning beads, and langot/post custom hand carved. Main pegs also customized polished hardwood, sympathetics are also hardwood and carved.

Aged mahogany was used, it has a 14 1/2 inch tabli and the construction is all Miraj made of course, even the beads which are ebony. The top gourd has the same attention to detail with inlaid and smaller soundhole.

Fiberglass cases for sitar and top gourd are also Miraj made and very nice with a fitted plush lining.

This sitar has been air shipped (as are all of our instruments) to preserve its quality. Styles of each will vary slightly.
