Description

Edit description

Combining the exotic allure of a sitar with the familiar feel of a steel-string acoustic, the Manzer Sitar invites you to explore a world of harmonically rich tones. Crafted by the renowned luthier Linda Manzer, this unique instrument is a nod to her innovative specialty acoustics made for legendary guitarist Pat Metheny. The Manzer Sitar is not just an acoustic guitar; it’s a musical journey that responds dynamically to your pick attack, offering a vibrant palette of sound that resonates with both sitar-like buzz and traditional guitar warmth.

The guitar features a solid spruce top paired with rosewood back and sides, delivering a robust and balanced tonal quality. A mahogany neck and ebony fretboard ensure smooth playability, while the elongated "Sitar" bone saddles lock in place with precision, enhancing the sitar effect. Despite its intricate design, the Manzer Sitar maintains a user-friendly feel with its 25.625" scale length and 1.80" nut width.

Equipped with a Sunrise acoustic pickup, this guitar is ready for both studio and stage, ensuring your unique sound is captured with clarity. Whether you're exploring new musical landscapes or adding a distinctive voice to your collection, the Manzer Sitar is a remarkable fusion of tradition and innovation.
