Surbahars
The surbahar is the bass sitar of Hindustani classical music. With its larger gourd, wider neck and heavier strings, it is tuned lower than the sitar and produces a deep, sonorous tone that is perfect for slow, meditative alaap, jod and jhala in the dhrupad style.
Surbahars are made in small numbers by skilled makers, so please contact us about availability and setup.
