Hi michoud

There is a shop in Southall on the outskirts of London that apparently sells good sarods. They are called Bina Music and used to have a website, but can't seem to find it now. (Try the Yell.com website for their contact details.)

The Ali Akbar Khan College of Music in the US also sells sarods online at http://www.aacm.org/, and I should imagine they would be a very reliable source.

You could always try buying direct from India, but having experienced Indian music stores and sales techniques first hand, I would definitely recommend letting someone else handle this for you!

All the best

David

I agree with David, that buying direct from India can be a minefield. But I have purchased instruments direct and protected myself (to some degree) by using an escrow agent.

There is an extensive list of suppliers at:
