    I don't even own a sitar but this is hypnotic to watch. I think that just owning a sitar is an art by itself.

      a sensible reply, but use just over 1 mtr of line and you will be ok

    it would have been helpful if you told us how many times to loop the thread into each fret groove!

      Yes Peter, you are right. This varies, as some sitars have 2 on each end, and some sitars have 3 on each end. Check the other frets to see how many they have.

    I struggle with this. But, to tell the tooth I am trying to use dental floss

      Haha, your very creative.
      However, I do suggest that you use either fishing nylon line, about 0.60mm thick , or the sitar fret thread available from any instrument maker in India, or from India-Instruments in Berlin, Germany.
