Designer Artistic Indian Musical Miniature Non Playable Tune Wooden Sitar<br>Love Music Live Music<br>This is our miniature version of the Standard Dark Sitar. Standard decorations, no rear toomba, 5 main, 2 chikari and 4 sympathetic strings. Approximately: 22 1/2"L x 6" W x 5" H. Makes a perfect decor item. Decorations and colors will vary. These are all individually made and will be unique.<br>The instrument flourished under the Mughals, and it is named after a Persian instrument called the setar  (meaning<br>three strings<br>). The sitar flourished in the 16th and 17th centuries and arrived at its present form in 18th-century India. It derives its distinctive timbre and resonance from sympathetic strings,bridge design, a long hollow neck and a gourd-shaped resonance chamber. In appearance, the sitar is similar to the tanpura, except that it has frets.<br>Tuning depends on the sitarist's school or style, tradition and each artist's personal preference. The main playing string is almost invariably tuned a perfect fourth<br>above<br>the tonic, the second string being tuned to the tonic. The tonic in the Indian solfège system is referred to as<br>ṣaḍja<br>,<br>ṣaḍaj<br>, or the shortened form<br>sa<br>, or<br>khaṛaj<br>, a dialectal variant of<br>ṣaḍaj<br>, not as<br>vād<br>, and the perfect fifth to which one or more of the drones strings are tuned is referred to as<br>pañcam<br>, not<br>samvād<br>.<br>The sympathetic strings are tuned to the notes of the raga being played: although there is slight stylistic variance as to the order of these, typically they are tuned:<br>I Sa= D<br>VII Ni= C#<br>I Sa= D<br>II Re= E<br>III Ga= F#<br>IV Ma= G<br>V Pa= A<br>VI Dha= B<br>I Sa= D<br>II Re= E<br>III Ga= F#<br>(the last three in the upper octave). The player should re-tune for each raga. Strings are tuned by tuning pegs, and the main playing strings can be fine-tuned by sliding a bead threaded on each string just below the bridge.<br>Payment Method<br>We accept payments only by PayPal.
