# Where can I get a sitar or tabla repaired outside India?

 Updated 27 October 2026

 

KalaSudha services and repairs any sitar or tabla outside India, wherever you bought it and wherever you live: ask us. On a sitar, that includes the setup and the jawari, the buzzing bridge. On a tabla, we re-face worn heads and renew the syahi, the black paste on each head.

We pack every instrument for international shipping, so ask us about a case and insurance for the trip. For help with your instrument, use the chat on any page or email <contact@kalasudha.com>.
