Repairs

SiTAR FAcToRY offers specialized repair and restoration of sitars, surbahars and other Indian string instruments. With more than 30 years of experience in sitar making and repair, I work on both structural and functional problems, from damaged tumbas, joints and tablis to bent necks, tuning pegs, sympathetic-string bridges and frets.

Below you will find examples and information about common sitar repairs. For an assessment of your instrument or a specific repair, feel free to contact me.
