I got a Rogue sitar-guitar, the one with the sympathetic strings, some years ago for around $200. Great investment. I don’t use it frequently, but when you want that sound in a band context it’s the only thing that works
I had an original 1976 VR' was the best amp I ever had ' left in a club one night after the gig, came back the next night to play ' the club had caught on fire and everything was destroyed. I bought an 68 reissue a year ago' not even close. It's for sale.
