Hiren Roy Sitar

Full decoration ~ pre-owned

One of the last sitars made from stored wood in the Hiren Roy / Barun shop. At the time Barun used his most aged wood stored  by his father and built the professional level instruments with a thickness that will give it a long life and deep tone with proper break-in and playing.

Approximately 13.5 + inch tabli, angoor patta design in the carvings. Original cream resin bridge with new jawari. This instrument comes with one of our replica bridges included as an extra which allows you to have a copy of your original at all times. The tone is classic half open with a great sustain. Polish is stable with minimum checking and shrinkage under the celluloid. Minor wear but nothing out of the ordinary, it has been lightly polished here along with peg fitting and jawari.

This sitar was ordered and picked up by a musician in India and brought over via air. It's approximately 3 to 4 years old and the structure was made by Baruns now retired craftsman. It has been fitted back to original specifications here, comes with fiberglass cases for the sitar and top gourd and the standard accessories package I offer with all instruments. This is a consignment sitar here at the shop which I was very happy to accept.

$2475 + shipping         Sold, sorry
