It's picked in India (5)
I believe the answer is:
sitar
'it's picked in india' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for sitar that I've seen before include "Stringed instrument of the subcontinent" , "Indian string instrument" , "Long necked and often plucked" , "It takes pluck" , "Indian stringed instrument" .)
