thread.
Enough for 100+ frets. Color will

When you order Mizrabs from us, please look at the underside of your
finger and measure exactly from the first line of the joint to the tip
(usually ¾ to 1¼ inch) and then add
¼ inch. If you prefer the mizrab to anchor above the joint then subtract
¼ inch. Include these measurements in the customer comments section when
ordering online. We will then pick out the right sizes for you which
saves a lot of hassle and pain. It also ensures a good fitting mizrab
which is VERY important! Also please let us know if you have
exceptionally large or small fingers.
If
you would like us to match your own favorite Mizrab then send us your
measurements as indicated in the picture.

Rosin
is a good alternative to chalk. It lasts longer and holds better!

(click for larger size)
Take your peg out, rough it up
a little with sandpaper. Then sprinkle some rosin in the palm of
your hand and rub the peg in it. For best results, install peg
without the string and turn a few times, then take it out and repeat
the application.
Liquid Surbahar Peg Rosin
Liquid Rosin
is even easier to apply. It lasts longer and holds better than the
powdered rosin!
Comes in a bottle with a dropper. You don't even have to remove the
peg. You pull the peg out slightly, apply the rosin to both
pegs holes and put the peg back in and turn. It's that easy!
