This is a silent shamisen made with a Tsugaru-jamisen base. It's perfect for practice in environments where you can't make loud noises, such as apartments and condos. ・Tsugaru-jamisen base made of Karin wood (round body) ・Three-piece folding futozao (thick neck) made of shitan (purple sandalwood) ・Thin rubber sheet over the body (the rubber surface is almost the same as when skin is stretched, with a bachi-kawa seal attached) ・Ito-maki (tuning pegs) made of suroku-kokutan (black ebony) ・New non-slip rubber sheet applied ・Doate (body protector) in black, with black string ・Komma (bridge) is not included, so please use a bridge of your preferred height. * The neck has been adjusted by our designated shamisen craftsman, so you can start practicing immediately after assembling the shamisen. Returns and claims are not accepted after a successful bid. Thank you for your understanding.
