Naeem Sitarmaker Concert Sitar

Kohinoor style decoration teak

Vilayat Khan style setup ~ all inlaid

This is now an archive page: Unfortunately I've had to discontinue carrying instruments from Naeem Sitarmaker. Left here for your viewing, if you see a design you like it's easily made by one of our newer makers, just let me know!

Been working on these for awhile, I had suggested a Miraj version of the popular Kohinoor design which has been done by a few makers. Naeem put his own style and design on it. Adding a lot of carved bone work and extensive inlays with very old teak wood!

6 main strings and 12 sympathetics with a 13 7/8 inch tabli width. All natural materials for nuts/bridges. Nuts (Meru) are hand carved. Custom tuning beads. Langot is synthetic.  Main pegs also customized polished hardwood, sympathetics are also hardwood and carved. Natural shellac finish in dark brown with slight red undertones.

Aged teak was used and the construction is all Miraj made. Gourd is one piece. Very good sustain and a solid instrument.

Fiberglass cases for sitar 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.
