Here you can see some elsi details:
• the new sitar bridge (mid)
• 12 resonance strings (left mid)
• ABM headless tuners (down left)
• lipstick pickupsThe elsi features a bridge which was completely new designed. It is responsable for the typical sitar sound and - in contrary to all traditional sitar bridges - for perfect intonation in every position.
Resonance strings of the elsi Electric Sitar can be tuned by means of a screwdriver (see picture mid left). The typical sitar sound however is virtually independent of resonance strings. Therefore elsi can be delivered without resonance strings, too.
In that case elsi will be equipped with only one volume and tone control..
