Handcrafted Sitar from well-known company in Calcutta, India. Kanai Lal has been a leader in Indian musical instruments since the 1940s.
This is a Deluxe Sitar (there are smaller sizes). Instrument is in great condition. There are ivory trimmings on the headstock and the base. Those on the base are peeling slightly. This does not affect the sound or the playing, only the looks. Otherwise, it is in perfect playing condition and sounds amazing.
This instrument was shipped to me from my family in India when I was in music school. It has served me very well and still plays perfectly, but I just don't have the time for it anymore.
Comes with extra replacement strings and cloth bag for basic protection.
It is truly a beautiful sounding (and looking!) instrument.
For now, listing is for local pickup only (as this would be much easier), but may ship for interested buyers.
