he Dilruba is a North Indian bowed string instrument, known for its beautiful, "heart-stealing" sound, and it's a significant part of Sikh devotional music. It's a fretboard-equipp ed instrument, featuring four main bowed strings and a set of sympathetic strings underneath that resonate to create a richer tone. Similar to the esraj, the Dilruba was developed to be easier to play and tune than the traditional sarangi, combining features of the sitar (like frets and metal strings) with the sarangi's bowed playing style and skin-covered soundbox. Comes with a hard case specially built for it. Show more
