Thank you for visiting. This is a shamisen's "ichi no ito" (first string). It can be used for joruri and futozao "Tsugaru-jamisen" (Tsugaru shamisen with a thick neck). ・Made of high-quality silk thread, it is very finely and strongly twisted. It is an exquisite string that is often used by professional musicians and has a good resonance for sawari (buzzing sound). Called "futo-kuchi no ichi" (thick gauge first string), it is powerful and suitable for "tataki-jamisen" (shamisen played with a percussive style). (The futo-kuchi has a ㊂ mark in green.) ・The thickness is equivalent to approximately "28-1". ・It is a recommended item for stage performances. ・It is not a used item, but a new one, so there is no deterioration over time. (The freshness of the string is essential.) The price includes shipping, so we cannot offer a discount... ・If you purchase multiple items ・If you purchase with other items We will offer a discount, so please comment in advance.
