While much of India is rapidly advancing, the Indian instrument manufacturing process remains comparatively primitive. From touch ups to tuning, much of what we do at Old Delhi Music is add a layer of quality control to an otherwise non-standardized production process.

We wrote  THIS ARTICLE to ensure customers understand and might appreciate this old-fashioned production style, the unique products we carry, and how we're working to ensure genuine quality, despite the odds. It's a quick read, and definitely worthwhile for anyone considering the purchase of a traditional Indian instrument.

          A very delighted buyer in Florida
          Selling Delight & Joy

          I was so impressed with purchasing two instruments from ODM that I decided to also purchase a third one - this amazing Naeem Teak Male Concert Tanpura! It arrived without a scratch on the exact day I wanted so I could meet the delivery staff.
          The Instrument: Absolutely lives up to its brand and is impeccably crafted and looks elegant. The most important attribute of course is the sound, which is rich, resonant and deep.
          The sellers: Calling ODM the "seller" truly sells them way short. Nick and team make it their job to be responsive, customer-friendly and very discriminating in which instruments and brands they source and bring to the US. Nick took time on the phone again to answer many questions and share his deep expertise in Indian musical instruments. The MOST important step in buying a physical instrument is the ability to see, feel and hear it and Michael as usual went way above and beyond. He took time to tune the specific instrument I was interested in and then also tuned a few others options they had in stock - then he took a video and emailed it to me promptly. Seeing and hearing the video allowed me to make the BEST decision for me! I am truly delighted with the purchase!
          THANK YOU Nick, Michael and the entire ODM Team for what you do! Your care for your customers and your instruments is very much seen and appreciated!

          Impeccable Service

          After exhaustive research on the difference between Tun and Teak wood Tanpuras, I still had questions. After all, how to decide which Tanpura is the very best for you without actually physically seeing it and hearing the unique notes it plays?
          To get expert help and counsel, I turned to the trusted team at ODM. As usual, Nick already had informative videos on YouTube. Nick was happy to take my calls and spend time providing his expertise that has been honed through personally working with craftspeople in India and handpicking instruments & designs to make available in the US.
          But they did more!
          Based upon my questions, the ODM team chose 3 particular instruments that would fit my needs, tuned them perfectly to my vocal scale, took videos and sent them to me so I could see and hear how the notes sounded on these specific Tanpuras! I was delighted as usual and actually seeing the specific Tanpuras and how they sounded helped me make the best decision for me. THANK YOU Michael for taking the time to do this!
          I chose the Naeem Teak Male Tanpura which arrived without a scratch in a hard case included in the purchase. The make and look of this Tanpura is AMAZING and the classy look of this instrument and the Teak sound ADDS to the meditation that is Indian Classical Music.
          KUDOS again to ODM & Nick and his team for your impeccable service to your customers as we walk on our individual musical journeys. I will be ever grateful for your partnership, customer-orientation and care.
