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.
