About This Listing

DESCRIPTION

The MKS No. 1 is a concert grade, fully-decorated Kharaj Pancham / Ravi Shankar style sitar. No. 1 grade models are constructed using only the best components available to the maker - the straightest neck, the largest gourd, the nicest jawari and other pieces. Monoj Kumar Sardar & Bros. (a.k.a. "MKS" or "Sardar") is a well established name in Kolkata. This is their very best sitar. The fit and finish of this sitar is outstanding. The tone is incredible.

These are available from our inventory in the U.S. No special ordering is required. Each one is set up by skilled musicians at our Urbana, IL shop before shipping.

STORE

Old Delhi Music makes buying a quality harmonium, tabla set, sitar, or any other Indian instruments easy.

Our business is family owned and operated since 2010. In the U.S., we are a small team of musicians dedicated to refinements and customer support. In India, we’ve built relationships with many of the country's best musical artisans and founded a workshop where our staff ensures quality.

We sell and ship the best Indian instruments available on earth throughout North America and globally.

DISCLAIMER:

While much of India’s economy is rapidly advancing, the Indian instrument manufacturing process remains comparatively unchanged. It is a cottage industry, and new products made using these traditional methods will appear handmade as compared to electric guitars or keyboards made in an Industrialized manufacturing setting. From touch-ups to tuning, at Old Delhi Music, we add several layers of quality control to an otherwise non-standardized production process. When a particular unit’s cosmetic appearance falls below the standards of what we consider “normal” or “acceptable,” we will label these as “B-stock.”

Please be in touch if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Old Delhi Music
