Exotic Guitar/sitar music

Innovative, exotic adventure music on the world's only 17 stringed guitar/sitar. An amazing global journey into a rich sensuous bed of luxurious sound. The guitar/sitar was custom made for Chuck Jonkey by the skilled hands of Scott Hackleman. Chuck relates: "After my first trip to India I started to study the sitar and realized that there are many things you can do on sitar that aren't possible on the guitar. I started searaching for someone with the expertise to put my ideas onto the instrument. Here is the result... 7 main playing strings and 10 sympathetics." The guitar/sitar evokes a surreal sonic presence that blends with acoustic drums, percussion, oud, tamboura and other exotic world instruments. Don't miss this colorful, meditative and brilliant rhythmic recording.
