This is a Shimabukuro Hakuhou Sanshin store's Yaeyama Kuroki Ujirami wood shamisen, which only handled high-end sanshin during the Showa period. This month, it has been freshly sunchee-lacquered, after being used without lacquer, making it a very beautiful sanshin. The Ujirami pattern emerges throughout the entire neck from beneath the lacquer, making it a very attractive instrument. The shape is also beautiful, and it is evident that it was made by a skilled craftsman. There are no twists or warps in the neck, and although there were repair marks on the back of the ten and the kyomune before lacquering, they are completely unnoticeable after the lacquer has been applied. Gold leaf is applied inside the itokura (string storage). The neck weighs 421g. It comes with a special chiga made of keyaki (Japanese zelkova) and kusunoki (camphor) wood by Naoki Uchima, and a single-skin honkawa (genuine leather) dou (body) and a handmade tiger (doumaki) by a doumaki craftsman. The karakui (tuning pegs) are valuable Kuroki Ujirami wood karakui handmade by Dousei Tokeshi. It will be shipped in a new semi-hard case. Thank you very much.
