We do our honest best to curate a selection of instruments we feel good about, but if you don't love anything you buy from us, we don't want you to feel stuck with it. In the case you wish to exchange or return something you have purchased from us, the following policies apply (READ OUR RETURN FULL POLICY HERE)

RETURNS

Our policy lasts 14 days from the day you receive your instrument. Beyond this, unfortunately we can’t offer you a refund or exchange. To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging.

REFUNDS (if applicable)

Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund. If you are approved, then your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your credit card or original method of payment, within a certain amount of days.

We will replace all standard items or parts if they are defective or otherwise damaged. B-stock and used instruments are not replaceable but still eligible for exchange. If you need to exchange any item, please send us an email at olddelhimusic@gmail.com .

While much of India is rapidly advancing, the Indian instrument manufacturing process remains very old school. 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 vintage 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.

Thank you,

Old Delhi Music

Great Sitar!

After recovering from some “PTSD” trying to order a sitar directly from India, I gave ‘Old Delhi Music’ a try. This company was amazing & the sitar was so good, I got TWO of them. I’ve been playing for over 20 yrs and the construction, tone & feel of these sitars are just wonderful. Please consider this instrument if your wanting a concert quality sitar in the style!!!

Greatest Gandhar Pancham Style Sitar.

I couldn't be more happier to got This Gem from OLD DELHI MUSIC.
Great tone and excellent playability, both clean and worm sound, built nicely to play life time long I believe.
Definitely a professional grade. The jawari is magical.
I highly recommend this to any serious sitar player especially for Gandhar Pancham lover.
ODM's set up is perfect, and very carefully packed.
Thanks a lot OLD DELHI MUSIC and the stuffs !!
