    Pretty good

    When it arrived there was a small part where the paint came off but it wasn’t that bad. The tumbi string that came with it broke pretty easily but it was easy to replace. Good product.

    I am enjoying my new Punjabi ! It's fun and challenging just having the one string. I moved the bridge back a little and lowered the string at the tuning peg and it seems cool and stable tuning-wise.
