Hear the Resonance
Some things can't be described, only heard. Listen to the authentic, sustained tone of the Selcouth Tanpura, crafted for clarity and depth in every note.
Our Story
It started with a Cajon box and a challenge from Guruji Ninad Mulaokar Sir: can you build a tanpura in a box?
We said yes. After days of crafting and testing, Guruji himself approved the sound. Guided by him on tuning, our founder Aditya perfected the technique, and Selcouth Percussion was born on 25th August 2018.
Today, every box tanpura we make carries that same spirit: handcrafted, precisely tuned, and built for the modern musician.

Our Craft
Every Selcouth tanpura is handcrafted from seasoned teak wood, chosen for its strength and resonance. The bridge, the heart of the instrument's tone, is shaped from sheesham wood for rich, sustained sound.
From framing to fine-tuning, each piece takes nearly a week to complete. No shortcuts. Just precision, patience, and a deep respect for traditional sound.
