Description
| Feature | Details | Importance to the Musician |
| Maker/Model (Chopra) | Indicates a specific, often highly regarded, maker or shop known for quality construction and tone. | Guarantees superior craftsmanship and reliable performance compared to mass-produced models. |
| 13 Drone Reeds | The instrument contains 13 separate reeds (usually metal) corresponding to the 12 notes of the chromatic scale plus the tonic (Sa). | Provides a full range of notes for the drone, allowing the musician to select any tonic pitch (Sa) and combine it with appropriate intervals (like Pa or Ma) for the Raga. |
| Ply-Added Construction | The wooden casing (cabinet) has additional layers of wood (ply) added during construction. | This custom feature enhances the air-seal and stability of the cabinet, leading to a much longer, more sustained drone without air leaks. |
| Foot Pump Mechanism | Instead of the standard hand-pumped bellows, this model is equipped with a foot-operated bellows system. | Hands-Free Operation: This is a major convenience, allowing the musician or accompanist to maintain the drone using their foot, leaving both hands free for playing another instrument (like the Harmonium or a string instrument) or reading music. |
| Box/Case Included | Comes with a protective carrying Box or Case (often a fiber or plywood box). | Essential for protecting the instrument from temperature changes and physical damage, especially given the delicate nature of the reeds and bellows. |
