Mohammed Waseem Concert Sitar

Safed Mor (White Peacock) all inlaid

Kharaj pancham (Ravi Shankar) style

From one of the premier instrument makers in Miraj, Waseem is by far the best carver and designer in India.

Aged tun/mahogany wood, single piece Miraj gourds. Natural bridges and fittings. Finish is shellac and very thin providing a nice sound and scratch resistance. Completely inlaid design with extensive penwork and fancy tar gahan. Custom langot that does not require loops for the main strings. Large top gourd.... A very nice instrument!

Sound is resonant and responsive with 1/2 open jawari. Waseems bodies are easy to handle and not too heavy. Secondary and final fitting done here at the edge of the world by yours truly.

I've known Waseem for a very long time and happy to now be offering his instruments. We visit yearly and are in constant touch, the instruments are a nice combination of both of our skills together!

Waseems instruments are each unique so there are no carbon copies although a nearly exact model can be ordered if desired.

Air shipped (always) and fiberglass included, shipping will vary depending on your location.
