Naeem Sitarmaker Shahid Parvez style  sitar ~ gandhar pancham setting.

6 main strings ~ 12 sympathetics

Made from aged mahogany and gourd from Maharashtra. A 13.5 inch tabli gives this sitar a nice presence and it functions well with both soft and hard touch. The bridges are both ebony, main has double slots for 1st and 2nd string, . Mother of Pearl inlay and modern style grommets. Brass langot for trouble free playing....Nice action, easy to play and a balanced tone slightly nasal and perfect for this style of sitar.  It has an extremely black finish so hard for the pictures to do it justice. Suitable for D tuning, solid build with proper thicknesses.

Naeem comes from the oldest family of instrument makers in Miraj and makes a wide variety of instruments. This sitar has been expertly fitted and air shipped (as are all of our instruments) to preserve its quality and includes a nice fiberglass case. Please consider this if comparing to other instruments.
