The R A Sitarmaker "Kashmiri" sitar has very intricate woodcarving reminiscent of the Kashmiri wood work found in the Kashmir Valley.

 

Nicely carved Rosewood pegs, carefully fitted and chalked with Deer Horn center pieces and Fish like deer Horn tuning beads.  Which adds a more delightful touch to the whole instrument.

  

 

The very stylish and highly carved top tumba is equally as decorated as the gullu or back of the main bottom gourd of the sitar, and perfectly fitted to the sitar. All our top sitars have only natural gourds for the top!

 

The jawari is open and professionally done.  The string layout is Ravi Shankar Kharaj Pancham style. All frets are finely tuned and fitted in India and double checked at our shop before shipping! Meend (bending) of 6 to 7 notes are easily accomplished. The Frets are thicker than normal and arched high to assist with the meends. And yes, it sounds as good as it looks!
