thegarehanman Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 You'll get a sound simular to a sitar if you use a thick bone nut(like 1/4" or more) and slot it, but don't angle the slots like you normally would. I don't know where to buy sitar bridges though, persay. peace, russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitefly SA Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 wouldn't it stop sounding like a sitar when he fretted a note? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Setch Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 If you register at the MIMF there's a detailed post in library about making and adjusting a sitar style buzz-bridge. Once you're a registered member and logged in, do a library search for: "sitar-type buzz bridge" The post mentions musicians friend as a source, but I can't find anything listed, so they may have stopped carrying the product.
