I've found that there are some electric sitars that are more sitar than guitar. Here are some examples: http://www.sitarfactory.be/ The SBS-02 is completely electric since it has no acoustic chambers. I think this article should be changed to "Fusion Sitar," with electric sitar redirecting here, and add some other examples of sitar/guitar and acoustic/electric sitars. signed voodoowitchdr March 7, 2012 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.179.142.211 (talk) 23:14, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I just cut this out

"Vinnie Bell used the instrument on several songs, including "Green Tambourine" by The Lemon Pipers, "Band of Gold" by Freda Payne, and "She's a Heartbreaker" by Gene Pitney.^[1]"

The reference used is to Bell's own web site, which is proving to be notoriously unreliable. The first two songs listed are definitely not Bell's playing, so the third goes too. Carptrash (talk) 17:52, 8 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
