Mezrabs (Picks) for Sitar

    Please note: To measure your finger size use a tape measure to get the length of the index finger, first joint to tip, then measure around the first joint to get the circumference. Mezrabs are a little variable in size as they are hand made. You may need to custom fit them to your finger by bending them with pliers.
    To keep your mezrabs from being lost it may be useful to put the mezrab on the instrument's sympathetic string pegs when you finish playing and/or keep a couple on your key ring.
