High Quality Sitar Strings

The strings are of high-quality steel and phosphorus bronze and produce perfect tonicity. The seven primary strings were of ample length to ensure proper knot tying and fit. The steel sympathetic strings are of generous length.

I have not put the strings to use yet, but I have bought several sets of strings in the past from you guys and they were very good. I expect these strings to be excellent as well. I have a project to repair, clean and restring my sitar but I have yet to start on that.
