Maintaining the Sitar Jawari in the West

As far as my original jawari, well, let's just say I didn't buy that sitar from a decent importer, I won't name names. The jawari that came with the instrument was terrible. It was very closed, which in itself isn't bad, but I wanted a more open one. The one I replaced it with was super open - very much a Raviji sound.

Djovari, or Giving Life

I suggest buying a cheap sitar to practice jawari on. I would find some old random sitar, and buy a couple of extra bridges at the same time. That way you can practice carving jawari while still being able to practice and play on your good sitar. I promise you that if you dive into your nice sitar with a file and chisel you will regret it.

Best Materials: Sitar Woods and Bridges

What are synthetic bridges made of? The one Tony K. made for me is made out of Delrin.

It doesn't quite have the "zing" of my bone bridge, but I'm pretty sure that's a jawari …

Yes, I carved the swan too. I spent a few hours on the upper jawari, but more on the legs. I carved several until it was right. They were the hardest part The lower jawari is pretty easy.

What is Jawari?

Hardcore practicers put something (plastic, film negative) under their bridge when practicing scales to save their jawari. The point is that the jawari of a sitar can radically affect the sound. A mediocre sitar with an excellent jawari can sound good. An excellent sitar with a worn or badly done jawari can sound bad or uninspiring.

This will serve as a depth gauge and also when the surface filing is done, the strings will be pretty much certain of having contact all the way to the "slot bar" - a good thing!
