Bhava Classic Kirtan Harmonium

Description

DESCRIPTION:
The Bhava Classic is a new take on the traditional folding harmonium design. While most harmoniums are built out of square from low grade materials, this one is built true using only solid wood (no particle board) and best available components throughout. Add to this an unmatched refinement process, and the result is a harmonium that sounds, feels, and looks better than anything else in its class.
Finished in a natural lacquer and built into a collapsible frame, the Bhava Classic is both great looking and exceptionally portable. Functionally, it's set up in a traditional Delhi style with 42 piano cut keys (3.5 octaves), 3 stops, 3 drones, twin horizontal reed banks with high quality bass and male reed sets, and a sliding volume control board (Jaali). Collapsed, this harmonium measures 23.5 x 7 x 12 inches and weighs just 22 lbs.

If you want to buy a great Indian Instrument, you're in the right place. Our passion is to connect people like you with India's very best handcrafted folk instruments.

DISCLAIMER:
While much of India’s economy is rapidly advancing, the Indian instrument manufacturing process remains comparatively unchanged. It is a cottage industry, and new products made using these traditional methods will appear handmade as compared to electric guitars or keyboards made in an Industrialized manufacturing setting. From touch-ups to tuning, at Old Delhi Music, we add several layers of quality control to an otherwise non-standardized production process. When a particular unit’s cosmetic appearance falls below the standards of what we consider “normal” or “acceptable,” we will label these as “B-stock.”
Please be in touch if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Old Delhi Music
