- We go inside a musical instrument factory in Pakistan to see how instruments are made. I'll show you the entire factory, the various machines used for manufacturing, and the entire manufacturing process of a musical instrument.
This factory, located in Sialkot, produces all sorts of instruments for export outside of Pakistan. They make harps, flutes, kots, Arab kots, bouzouki, Irish bouzouki, bodhran, bagpipes, and more.

U go everywhere, theres no doubt
Hey karl big fan
Have you learned how to play any Pakistani instruments??
I showed this vid to my dear wife who was a music teacher and pianist she loved the care that the workers put into their work, she said amazing
Has she said any other words?
The Irish drum is called a bodhrán and is pronounced bow-rawn (bow as in take a bow). They're gorgeous and have been part of Irish culture for centuries!
Irish culture made in Pakistan
Bodhran sticks are so sleek and 👍
But is the price really 5 or 6k there in Europe as mentioned in the video.
nice one! tbf he did a better job than most Americans at pronouncing it! They'd have said Bod-Ron!
Fact: I love Ireland.
Why do I love Ireland?
Because of jacksepticeye, Conan, & all the nature.
You kind of look like Jacksepticeye too.
The traditional Sialkot people with golden hands. Best in the world

I didn't know until know how laborious the work actually is. And with the price tag of the product I was blown away so expensive in other countries and so cheap in Pakistan which makes me sad that how less would such an amazing set of hardworking craftsmen earn. Thank you for this video.
Theirs lot of expenses bro .... electricity is expensive in Pakistan ..... and also it's about currency u know
@@RjRocks I know still you guys are doing a great job
Hats of to u bro at least seeing a sensible person who is appreciating the work and not spreading venom
@@unofficiallyofficial bro lot of people have positive view of Pakistani people here in India . The people who abuse in comment section are mainly fake accounts operated by using indian names. And i want to tell you these people get paid per comment. Like here in India BJP has huge troll army of these kind of people if anyone questions bjp or modi they will start to abuse you. If you see anyone abusing Pakistan they are mainly 90 percent fake accounts operated by these troll armies.
@@AmanSingh-ke4zc bro I know one thing we are humans which have been divided by politicians on the basis of religion else we all are same
What an absolutely fascinating video! I would have never thought that traditional Irish folk drums (incidentally, bodhrán is pronounced something like "bough-rone") and other European/Arabic/historic instruments are being manufactured by hand in Pakistan of all places! I would love to own one of their lute guitars. Absolutely brilliant entrepreneurship from whoever decided to start this enterprise. Thank you Karl for this tour!
These are few instructions there are many more are made in pakistan
I habe a dulcister with 8 string. Unbelievable sound and good craftsmanship.
Man! It’s crazy how they can develop pieces of art with limited tools and technologies. The resilience and craftsmanship of these people who are most often demonized here in the west is breathtaking. It reminds me of one of Maya Angelou’s poem:
‘You may write me down in history with your bitter twisted lies, you may trod me in the very dirt. But still, like dust, I rise.’
I have often thought that India could produce some quality guitars, with the right direction, time and quality hardware.
Bro,You are Right...No one Supports Poor Craftmans...Sialkot Pakistan make World 70% footballs even for FIFA😍...But,All is done By Hand and Eyes of The Poors 😔..Nobody Supports💔...Workers Don’t pay that they deserves..
True👍
@@krunal7433 Right. Also persecution of minorities, honour killings. Just the other day in Pakistan hundreds of guys attacked to kill a guy for blasphemy. This was in capital Islamabad, not tribal regions.
@@tubester4567 The list is endless. A lot of people are being brainwashed lately to think that all these facts are lies. There has been a Imran Khan government funded campaign where youtubers are paid to make videos about pakistan.
PAKISTAN is one of the greatest producers of musical instrumentals supplying across the western world. Craftsmen are second-to-none!
Well done documenting such great talent.
after this vid ive come to appreciate them also
Hamid-would you know contact to some Pakistan music instrument manufacture company?
Sialkot city is pride of the Pakistani people, I wish every Pakistani city become as entrepreneur as Sialkot. I am from Sialkot City born & bred.
Amazing brother from uk
@@mohammedkhan3054 Thanks.
There is no doubt brother that Sialkot City is doing what every Pakistani city should be doing.
One thing that concerns me... my family owned a sawmill amd woodworking shop. So this is from experience. So.. the amount of sawdust they have and especially with them using large ground level fans... there is a real risk of explosion. Yes... EXPLOSION. Sawdust can become explosive when the air becomes filled with it and an ignition source(such as the fan motors) is present. Not only is there a risk of explosion but they have sawdust all over the place too. A normal fire would ravage that place in a hurry. Dry piles of sawdust that have been allowed to lay and dry out become super flammable... I found out the hard way when I was only 14. I hope they invest into dust collection systems and start better housekeeping practices. I’ll probably never meet the people that work there since I live in rural America... but I still care for them and want them to go home to their loved ones every day. Cheers Karl and thank you for another wonderful video. 🙏
Exactly my thoughts and also no eye covers or anything about safety😅
These people are dying from hunger. Their craftsmanship is being sold for thousands of dollars to so many countries of the world and yet those same countries call them terrorists. They don't get even 20% of the product they're making. Exploding from sawdust is the least of their worries.
@@fahimshehzad2113 safety should be a priority for everyone. Every person should be able to have a reasonable expectation of a safe workplace. As far as “terrorists” go... not sure who is looking at these people as terrorists but that’s not cool. Where I live in the US... people mostly view Pakistani people as normal and kind people that have just been exploited. I think times have changed tho. Yeah... not too long ago you would likely find a fair few people that would just call the. “Sand n word terrorists” but that’s no longer a viewpoint I’ve been able to find lately. I do talk to a LOT of people now about foreign topics. I do have family that live in southern US states and they are still absolutely backwards in their views of the Middle East and Asian countries. I’ll admit it’s sad and yes I do educated them as much as possible. Sadly... some are just too far gone. I’m vividly aware of the way some people view those parts of the world but it’s up to use to educate others and to let them know the truth. The majority of Pakistani, and other Middle Eastern and Asian countries, are beautiful people that deserve much better lives and don’t deserve the stigmas associated. All races/ethnicities have dark points and have had bad pasts... there is no superior “race”/ethnicity and we all need to work together for a common good vs fighting. Hopefully some day we can get there but unfortunately we have governments, and power players, that do not want to see peace. Peace hurts their wallets. We need to work together and creat positivity and stop the hatred.
@@TsunauticusIV Well said my friend.
Very well said. I hope with positive comments such as yours, we can make sure that the owners get the message and take necessary corrective measures.
Craftsmanship of pakistan , Golden Hands
True hardworking Pakistani people, respect , Karl doing good job.👍✨
Many Indian friends might not know, song "sare jahan sy Acha, Hindustan hamara" was written by Dr. Allama Iqbal, and Sialkot is his birthplace.
Woah...i didnt know that...thnx for the info
And Allama Iqbal was born in British India!
Never knew things happen in such massive scale, really proud to see these craftsman making Pakistan proud ❤️
Great craftsmanship guys but just as one commentator commented about poor housekeeping practices (this place should be spick and span and well looked after) there was a huge dump of garbage right in front (or back side) of their business which was a sore sight. Companies like these who earn good have a corporate social responsibility (Sialkot Businessmen are known for it - they built their own airport, roads and infrastructure and started their own Airline) for their workplace, local community and neighborhood. As Pakistanis too, they have a responsibility to let their foreign clients respect their work ethics and employment and environment friendly working conditions - I hope the owner would read these comments and take them in good faith.
Kudos for everything else!
Very nice and informative video on Wooden Handicrafts . Also Pakistani Art has a very good deman in whole World .
Bahoot khubb Pakistan And Karl Bro 🥰❤️❤️
O thank you brother from India we love you
That was absolutly amazing. The quality look's so good. Amazing what they can do wow .What a great video i really enjoyed it keep up the awsome video's karl
Karl, More on motorcycle repair shops please. Pakistani craftsmen are some of the best in the world! A pleasure to watch mechanics at work. Your videos are awesome.
Thanks a lot from Pakistan. Yes labor is cheap and crafty in Pakistan. But due to so called war on terrorism our industry has suffered loss
Love from Delhi, India🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Nice work by you sir
This factory should provide protective glasses or face shields and noise-canceling headphone to their workers. That must be hard to daily work with extreme machine noise. They are exporting all over the world but not taking care of their workers.
Hearing loss in these hard workers must be devastating. Much less eye and hand injuries. And no insurance I'm sure. This is why stuff made in countries with no labor laws or safety regulations is so cheap.
Schools should have kids visit a place like this.
Good point
enjoying Pakistan vlogs sir
pakistan is so beautiful and their people too🇮🇳❤🇵🇰🤗

@@virendrasinghkandwal don’t talk about your daddy like that
Seems like people are polite , but media shows their different face 👋👋
Love from your heart ❤️
Unfortunately the Safety standards are non existent for the factory workers in Pakistan. No ear plugs no proper industrial grade masks gloves etc. Just wondering what impact the sawdust and noise will have on workers health.
Amazed that all workers are still in possession of all of their fingers
@@ewoutdegraaf They have great Skills and experience.
Same in India
A horrible one. These men face having permanent ringing in their ears, deafness, loss of vision through major trauma to the eye or through constant exposure to dust will develop conjunctivitis and cataracts. Their lungs will develop occupational asthma and they carry about 40% greater risk of lung cancer and even higher risk of carcinomas in the nose and mouth. Their skin will be constantly dry and itchy, and higher likelihood to develop allergy reactions. Not to mention the avulsion, amputation and degloving injuries from the machinery that will cause permanent disability and life threatening bleeding. It is wrong then we know how to avoid these outcomes that the measures to prevent them aren't provided.
Yeah, it's difficult.
The reason why KARL Rock is my favourite TH-camr
Karl I enjoyed this video seeing all the manual labour going into making the instruments but holy god there’s such a lack of safety there...at least they could give them safety glasses and foam ear plugs..what would they charge for the final product and do they same then online
Very dirty and dangerous work. After watching this, I know now why so many people from Pakistan are hired to do this kind of work in the west.
So thats where my 12 grand signature series was made
$s?
@@hyperceptional $7499
Karl, this video is top notch brotha!! Anyway you can get some videos of Pakistani auto mechanics? I seen a video a few months ago of them doing some repairs that was unreal!
Many years ago I used to have a mandolin that was made in Pakistan, I wonder if it was made at this factory! Bahut acchaa video Karl bhai!
(Edited to add, after seeing the Heartland brand on the bouzouki I’m pretty sure my old mandolin was made there!)
Wow, that's great. Where do you live?
@@strategygames4056 I currently live in Utah in the US. We recently moved here from New Delhi back in December of last year.
I’m originally from here but my wife is from India, and we spent a couple years living there ( I really miss India).
@@TyeMorrisVlog Cool! Do visit Pakistan too. You will love it
@@strategygames4056 I definitely would like to visit Pakistan someday, especially after Karl’s vids!
It is astonishing how beautiful instruments they make in such a simply equipped workshop! I can well imagine people paying 5-6k$ for them! Beauty forever!
Sialkot is a land of entrepreneurs. It’s soil is fertile and the sons and daughters of its soil are an asset for this world.
As a massive guitar fan , I am very interested in this video. I like all musical instruments to be fair but just love guitars.
Thanks for showing the hard work of My City Fellows ...:)
Love from Sialkot, Pakistan
Sunaiha-would you happen to know the contact to this company?
@@filipf7687 Sorry, No.
Omg who knew making music instrument is so labour intensive. Hats off to every working in this workshop
I am Addicted to this guy...Big Fan bro❤️❤️Lots of Love and Respect🙏🙏It's Absolutely fantastic
Credit goes to Pakistani people who welcome karl with open hearts and minds .Pakistanis r most loving and caring people around the world..pakistanis r very hardworking and talented..pakistan zindabad.
that guy at the sawing machine scared me when he was watching the camera instead of his fingers, haha
Just amazing! Quality craftmanship on top of that. Love seeing this side Pakistan.
Amazing! To me it looked like organised chaos and then at the end you see the beautiful stuff they produce.
I wanna show this very educating video to some Western Rock musicians who break their guitar and other instruments on stage, purely for entertainment reason. Respect the instruments, just look how hard these craftsmen are working !!
Let them break and buy new ones. It's good for business.
i am a musician and seems like i gotcha board a flight to Pakistan
Amazing videos, for a Canadian your vids give me such a great perspective of India and Pakistan
Great video Karl! how you covered the whole processes of these beautiful instruments being made with such dedication and craftsmanship, i really enjoyed the whole vlog thank you so much for this virtual tour.. PAKISTAN ZINDABAD
Wow such a nice informative video !!
The humour in every part was awesome though like "U eat those Pigeons or Growing Rice on the Roof", etc !
*This was an excellent vlog Karl!* What distinguishes it was its detailed showing of how instruments are made step by step. As a Pakistani, I just have one request from you Karl that you ask the factory owners to provide the craftsmen protective eye glasses, ear plugs, face shields, workman suits, work boots, more cleanliness & safety standards. If the owners implement this, their productivity might be boosted up to 30% by some surveys. This would be a great contribution if you can convince them of that.
I too was wondering why no eye shields!!

Insanely interesting! I was glued to the screen the whole time!
Very proud of their factory and rightly so. Amazing work done with old machinery.
I wish I could have heard one of those instruments played but that was such an interesting video! I love how resourceful those people are. You can tell they're making use of every little bit. Now it's time to look up people playing baroque guitars 😂
'Did you catch all that?' My eyes fell out of head...

This is such a unique tour, thanks for showing us! Amazing craftsmanship!
They could escape Pakistan with all that wood and be millionaires in America right now!
Wonderful craftsmanship, however craftsmen need to take health and safety seriously, no one is wearing any safety equipment.
Karl, Dont miss the Opportunity to visit world first and most advance ' Human Suicide Bomber Factory'. The Gift of pakistan to the world.
It’s Asia what do you expect
@AllGoodNamesRGone ignore him, he’s a troll
Yes, exactly. Given the circumstances they do some lovely work there. But that entire factory is a health & safety nightmare. Unfortunately I'm afraid this is at least partly because of ignorance/illiteracy. Because a lot of basic safety doesn't even need to cost any money. For example some simple push blocks or push sticks for guiding the wood on a sawing machine can easily be made by the workers themselves just from some scrap wood pieces. And that would already reduce much risk of people losing their fingers.
@@virendrasinghkandwal You don't deserve Kartarpur
So the whole Europe Japan & USA are saving their trees & utilising ours. Clever as ever!
It makes a nice change to see the workmen protecting their lungs from all the dust. Most of the machinery looks victorian but that doesn't matter it is the skill of the men working them that counts. I could spend all day there looking and watching these craftsmen at work
Lucky to see the modern version of 'Hieun-Tsang'
wow amazing workmanship thank you for showing us. 🙏💖
29:50 mistake in the subtitles, he's saying Euros not USD. Meaning they sell for around $6-7,000 USD.
Best factory
It’s amazing what this factory produces but if this factory was in NZ it would be shut down. I can’t believe the workers aren’t even wearing steal cap boots, safety glasses, ear muffs, thick gloves etc. It saddens me that they probably make a lot of profit but don’t care about the workers safety :(
Little things like personal protective equipment can prevent so many avoidable injuries.
Agree they need to provide them safe measurement
Workers in Indo Pak region feel uncomfortable wearing these kind of safety kits. They hate to wear these.
It's an unusual sight for Europeans as well. Lot of open blade power tools, you slip, you're left without a hand, or worse.
Hahaha....it's Pakistan baby,
We feel uncomfortable because of hot 🔥 weather,
You are right but when all these precautionary measure will be taken then the product cost will go too high that they cannot compete in the world market.
Lots of love and Respect From PAKISTAN ❣️🇵🇰❣️
