The Naeem No. 1 is the very best traditional Tun wood model offered by this renowned Miraj maker. Like the Naeem No. 2 - the resonant toomba is a real gourd, the Jawari and tuners are real bone, and you can rest assured that the very best of all materials are reserved for this model. With every decision thoughtfully made, this sitar sounds great and will age into excellence.
Naeem Sitarmaker maintains integrity and artistry using only locally sourced materials and honing them into fine quality instruments, as has been the tradition in his family for over 150 years.

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.
