I've only been playing sitar for a few months now, and when I borrowed the sitar that I'm using, it had a bunch of old, miss-matched, and broken strings on it. I replaced them with a cheap set from Amazon (at least they came with a nice bag, lol) and some of the strings actually broke as soon as I bent them to make loops! I made due with what I had for a while, until my playing warranted a better quality set. I ordered this set from Musicians Mall, and could immediately see and feel the difference in quality. I spent all night restringing my sitar and tuning it up, and now I am even more in love with this instrument than before. These strings have such a beautiful tone and feel. Thank you very much from a soon-to-be repeat customer!

Thanks to the Musician’s Mall restringing videos I now have a functioning Sitar again! The strings come well labeled so if you’ve become hesitant to change strings, buy the set and watch the video. It took me about 3 hours to restring, cleaning the frets, and a good overall polishing. I’m sure I can do it faster next time! Thanks again!!

Good service. Haven’t used the strings yet but they look great. Although, MusiciansMall shipped the strings to my home address when I asked to have it shipped to my work. Thanks anyway
