The unique and magical instrument- Siddha Veena is capable of expounding both Indian classical music as well as World music. Interestingly, this instrument is one of the most recent developments in the musical instrument world. It has been innovated by one of the leading exponents of Slide Guitar- Siddhartha Banerjee.
This stringed instrument is a highly modified slide guitar, made of teak wood. It has 21 strings- 4 melody, 3 drone, 2 chikaris, and 12 sympathetic strings. Siddhartha plays it the lap-style.
