One of the most majestic instruments I've heard

@abrahm714 It's incense - just trying to do the traditional Indian thing.

@abrahm714 actually I just realised that it was the smoke that wafted in front of you that added something to this vid.

I like the photo shop type filterings on your vid... it adds something to it.

@GrossOnToast It depends on the style that you want to pick up, also the level of musicianship you want to attain with this instrument. Do you want to try to become an expert or is this just something you want to take out to play for fun?

awesome solo man, sounds really good. I was thinking about getting one of these in the distant future, I am curious how long does it take to learn how to play a sitar

@dj9volt I'm a little bit reluctant to answer since I get so many pissy comments from sitar experts, but since you asked, I would encourage you to get one and try it out. It works very much like most other stringed instruments, though there are some unique features. There's a lot of information in books or on the internet to explain the playing techniques, and you can listen to CDs of well-known players to understand the aesthetics and ways of improvising. Go for it!

My fingers are like 6 cm, could I learn how to play a sitar?

@MrJastin Sure - I don't see why not. You don't need long fingers to play it.
