Hello Everyone and Happy Summer
We have recently kicked off a new program to promote and support Silk Road music instruments. Our goal is to generate more interest in these
instruments and to make them more readily available.
Our Famous Afghan Rubab maker is still producing the finest Afghan instruments available. All are custom made to your specifications and range from
simple plain instruments at USD500.00 all the way up to master level hightly decorated and custom instruments at USD1,500.

We have recently started working with a wonderful group of makers who produce fine Persian instruments.
Very Rare Persian Rubab: A cousin of the Afghan instrument but developed for Persian and Baluchistani music. Longer neck, micro-tone frets and amazing
workmanship. USD1,700 to USD5,000 depending upon maker and details.
Tar: Six string Persian Tar from several makers. Starter instruments begin around USD800.00 and go up to master level instruments in the USD1,300 to
USD2,000 range.
Tanboor: Kurdish solid body Tanboor. These are traditional Sufi and Kurdish instruments with amazing sound and workmanship. One in stock at
USD500.00. Others are available by custom order from master Kurdish makers from USD800.00 to USD1,900.
Our instruments are all very high quality instruments. They sound good, look good and are the best quality available.
Our instruments cost more than some you may see on Ebay, we only import and offer master hand made instruments that sound and feel wonderful to
play.
Please PM me for photos and more information. To hear some of these instruments visit our music project web site
