I dont have any experience with the bansuri yet, but I will say one thing about cheap musical instruments in general. About 1 year ago I bought a cheap kalimba. It sounded pretty bad. I quickly became frustrated and gave it up. About 6 months later i had the opportunity to get a good quality kalimba free. The difference was night and day. The kalimba i have now is a joy to play and i play it every day. So lesson learned for me. Don't buy junk when it comes to musical instruments. It's better to save up a bit and buy something you will enjoy.

I agree to some extent. My first instrument was a cheap guitar (I think it was the cheapest full size guitar on the market at the time). Thats all my parents could afford at the time. That guitar didn't sound particularly great and didn't feel very confortable or anything but, it had the essentials and it got me started on the instrument. Later we were able to afford a MUCH nicer guitar but, I'm really glad I started when I did with that cheap guitar because by that time I had gotten very proficient with the guitar and had like 6 years of experience. I think you have to see how much of a difference cheap vs expensive is and decide case by case. For my guitar, its noticable, but the cheap guitar was not unplayable or horrible sounding. So then in my opinion, its good getting that. But for other instruments, I think it may be different.

Thank you very much for this. I am going to Delhi amd Jaipur next month, amd i would.like tixvuy a giod beginner flute (in G!). Can you recommend any makers/shops, please? I dont want to spend TONS of money but enough to get a well made, in tune flute wkth a good tone. Thanks.

I bought an E bass flute because as you say it is used in classical and I am struggling with grip and being able to cover all the holes like playing dha then pa without lifting any other fingers. 6th hole is so far away I've been doing stretches to improve my reach. I will not give up, I'm sure I can learn to play it.

E Bass can be difficult to play for beginners, hence most Guru's in India recommend to go with G bass once you are confident with G bass you can easily try E bass flute.

Nice tutorial! I love how your bansuris sound, very sweet and mellow to my ears. Why do different bansuris sound very different in timbre, even if they are made from the same material (bamboo)? I know some can also be made of wood, but I'm referring to bamboo ones.
