I want to buy a sitar hard case. The tumba is 37 cm wide, length is 127cm.
Hello Larry this is first time I have seen and touched a sitar. This person has brought me this instrutment to repair and fix cracks and chips on finish.
can you tell me what the finsih is made of and you use regular glue and cracks wood bondo i just need to know what the material is so i can match it.Thanks

The finish is “french polishing” proces. We use mixture of shellac grains with spirit. For any cracks etc. we use ordinary wood glue (white stuff)… In case of need to fill-up we mix this wood glue with wooden dust and plaster. Watch here.
I have a couple of sitars hand made and about 30 years old from India. $500.00 and been repaired but sounds great. Im in wyoming where are you? Larry
Hello everyone. I have started listening to some classic indian music in the last couple of months and i have become attached to the sitar through this music. I have been playing the guitar for only about 4 months, but i know my way arou.d the guitar. I would love to eventually learn the sitar after the guitar. Does anybody know where i could find a handmade sitar for about $500 – $700. I know thats not much but i figured it can get me something. Please no chinese factory made crap. Preferably a quality sitar handmade. Thank you! 🙂
