The Jerry Jones Master Sitar 
<http://www.jerryjonesguitars.com/electric%20sitar.htm>.

List price is $795.00, plus $120 for a case. The Baby Sitar is 
$595.00, plus $55 for a gig bag.

At NAMM they were showing a new model that had regular tuning pegs 
for the sympathetic strings.

Jerry's instrument is a dead ringer for the original Coral Electric 
Sitar, but it is reported to have better intonation.  I like mine 
fine (it's on one cut of the Aias Zone CD), though the balance is 
neck-heavy.
