the flutes and the bag arrived, here, monday morning. very nice. they have a well-focused & full tone, and are very much in tune from one end to the other. not fuzzy-sounding, like some instruments. the half-holed notes do quite well. & they look & feel fine. i will send you a couple of recorded examples, maybe next week. i will want a few more instruments, eventually. thank you, 

Got the bansuri and fell in love with it immediately. It is absolutely exquisite and worth the wait. Thanks for everything,

The flute has safely arrived and it is a fine and beautiful instrument! I'm sure it will bring me many hours of joy and delight. Thank you for making it for me. Best wishes, 

 The instrument arrived today. Very nicely done.Thank you.

I have recieved the bansuri flute and it sounds awesome......can't wait to record it! I love the tonal qualitites and the way you can bend the notes ...I'm going to get somuch enjoyment out of it. 

 I really enjoy playing the flute you sent me.  GREAT tone and intonation!  It's nice the way the lighter bamboo vibrates in my hands.  Plays easily into the 3rd octave ga komal, I can more often then not get the elusive 3rd octave ni komal 

I just wanted to tell you that my Guru absolutely loved the bansuri. Thank you so much for facilitating this for me on such short notice.
Thank you again. 

Your crafted bansuri is absolutely world class, I can proudly claim that I own one. It is amazing the way it sounds and looks; it is so much fun to play such meticulously crafted bansuri.

You are really amazing and have skill that cannot be compared. I got my Flutes yesterday perfectly on time, and almost sleeping with them. Especially the F# flute, for which I am speechless. Each of the flutes is tuned to perfection. 

  ... it does sing beautifully.  I am very impressed and pleased in every way with this piece, Anubodh, and I want to thank you for your excellent work.  I am already dreaming up the next flute I will order from you... 

yesterday the package is arrived!!!
Very well packaged, beautiful Flutes, wonderful sound, you are a great professional flute maker!!! .Always wonderful Bansuri!!! Thanks!!!!!!!!!

 was amazed at the workmanship and precision of the instrument. The lower and middle half octaves sound great and the flute is so soft on my fingers. I am amazed that the flute is responding wonderfully to all the little finger movements for embellished gamakA and BhAvA... I am amazed at their quality and I haven't seen any other better carnatic flutes in my life time. Simply wonderful with the exact pitch I was looking for,the right hole dimensions that my fingers can comfortably playon, great sound with no air and ...what can I say..Hats off to you..Great job! http://www.youtube.com/flutekrishnan 

Such a beautiful flute!!! Thank you very very much. 

Received the flutes this evening. Neo carnatic flute has a really nice tone. The other G bass carnatic flute is also very good. Thanks,                         

The bansuri you sent me is absolutely wonderful in every way. What a piece of art! Thanks for your time, patience and advice. I really felt I got just what I wanted. I hope to see you up on the Vineyard sometime. Best wishes.

I just realized I havn't told you how the flute was. Now I have had it for a while and it really plays great. The tone is quite abit darker than I was used to from my old one, so it took alittle time to readjust. The thing that stands out for me is the evenness of tones from low to high octave. It's also much smoother when bending notes and the blowing hiss that bugged me on my old one is not there. Thanks alot for a great flute

 the flute is excellent. I thankyou so much for your help, integrity and skills. It has been a worthwhile experience for me of worthwhile internet trading, especially when there has been unintentional problems. So Anubodh, a final (well until a probable next order) thanks and best wishes

already recived the bansuri. I´m so grateful about your job and your colaboration. I hope the Divine bless your job and all your life. thank you, with gratitude    

Megan Loves her Bansuri. Thanks. She's looking at the C flute version ( Maybe a Christmas present). Cheers  

Thank you for the beautiful bansuri you built!! Like your promise it is simply beautiful, perfect in tune and beautiful bamboo too. I am almost speechless with it. If I will order a bansuri again I will order it from you. Keep you work good.

The bansuri is outstanding, has beautiful tone. And now I know "what others are saying...", the feel and smoothness is incredible. The offset is an arrangement I hadn't seen before and it works for me. Thank you for working with me and answering my questions. I'm glad I have taken John W's advice to come to you for a quality instrument.                         

My son is very happy with his new flute and is slowly adjusting to the different fingering and wonderful sounds. Thank You. 

It's beautiful - and it fits me much better - so I'm happy:-) All the best!

The flute arrived today and it is lovely! Thank you for such a wonderful Bansuri! I also love the color of the bindings! Thank you very much. If I run into someone who is looking for a Bansuri you will be the first person I recommend! Cheers, 

I found the best flute maker! Your flute is a joy to play. From a technical point of view I never thought such a long C# bass bansuri could be so well in tune and comfortable to play. In fact, its warm-toned, rich in harmonics sound makes it the best flute I played so far. I feel very lucky. Be sure I’ll let my colleagues know of your craftsmanship.

I received the flute today, and could not believe how beautiful it sounds! Thank you so much. I really appreciate you taking the time and making the second flute for me, especially with everything you had going at the time. The first thing I noticed was the deep quality of the flute itself; it just looks so much more majestic than any other flute I have seen! The quality of the material, the touch and feel of it in my hands, the look, everything looks fantastic. The first thing I noticed when playing it was the wholesomeness of the sound. It just seemed to fill up the whole room with its rich sound! The two other flutes I have come up very short when compared to this flute's sound. The second thing I noticed was how much easier it was play the upper registry notes, especially everything above the upper Shadjam. I also find it extremely feasible to play the lower octave notes. Overall, the flute is simply fantastic, and could not have asked for anything better! 

Thank you and I have received the flute last week, sound is beautiful, thank you for your work! Will enjoy my journey very much with it. 

Sorry I haven't written back sooner.  I received the D med. bansuri not long ago.  It's absolutely wonderful!  Stunning intonation & what a beautiful, rich timbre!  Now I have to begin learning some Indian bansuri music in addition to all the other types of music I play!  :)   Thank you again & take care.  I wish you the best in all your future flute making & playing!  If I ever find anyone looking for a bansuri, I will definitely recommend they contact you first!

I just received my flute yesterday and it's amazing. I am already in love with it. I spent all night yesterday playing and I even woke up early today to play. The flute is even better than I had expected it to be. THANK YOU SOO Much! I wouldn't have found a better bansuri elsewhere. Thanks for your time and if I ever need another, I will definetly order from you again. Take care.

 The exterior appearance of the flute clearly indicates that you're a perfectionist, but the sound is what makes it worth. It is sharp and clear in the range of 2 octaves and one note (I only got that far til now). I believe the neo feature enables a higher volume and it's really a pleasure to play it. Thanks a lot.                        

I received the bansuri today and am very pleased with it! I am a professional violinist, but I am a total beginner to bansuri. A friend let me borrow a bansuri for my first lesson, but already I can tell that this one is easier to play! I don't have to stretch nearly as much to reach Pa--the sixth hole. Thanks so much! 

Thank you so much, it’s really beautifully made and sounds, feels and smells amazing!

..I really have to compliment you on its workmanship. it is by far the best of all i have seen and played in the couple of years since i have been learning. the details such as the burned and beveled edges at both ends and the glass like finishing around the finger holes are magnificent not to mention the work done inside the bansuri itself!, all lends to a pleasant experience while playing. so smooth and clear, the sound quality is amazing! i will definitely keep this one and later i will order others i am sure. i am very glad to have found you.  thanks for your good work.

I just got the bansuri today it is a beautiful instrument and has a beautiful sound ... thank you very much and i will be looking forward to ordering another bansuri in the near future. Thank you for a beautiful flute.

 I received the bansuri yesterday. It is one of the most mellifluous, soulful musical object I have ever played! Thank you very much. Best Regards,

The bansuri is beautiful, and sounds great!  Thanks very much.  I'll be ordering another (a Bb) through your website soon.

Ja me llegó la Bansuri, es estupenda!... uf, voy a tener mucho trabajo para hacerla sonar. 

The flute you made for me is excellent. Its a pleasure handling the instrument and it seems to get better and better. Like my spiritual Guru said, its not made of bamboo, but of sugarcane.. :D :D :D Please find some recordings in the following links from a concert I played with the flute. I have also attached an image of me in the concert.
