New offering - 1" stainless steel sitar bar -
A Forum member requested that I copy his favorite sitar bar, in a 1" x 3 1/2" size, in polished stainless steel. This bar has a 3/8" flat grind the entire length of the bar, which makes the bar somewhat easier to grip. I made a few of these, they weigh 11.2 ounces, and have them available for the same price as our standard powder coated bars, $ 49.95, which includes shipping. We are currently looking at producing a few sitar type bars with single and double ground sides, in 7/8" and 15/16", in polished stainless steel. These are the first bars other than powder coated bars that we've produced, but will continue to offer a few more stainless bars depending on the demand. Photo below, the challenge is to have minimum reflection in the mirror-like finish. Email me if you are interested in this size bar, or this style bar in a smaller diameter. Thanks, Michael
