● Thank you for viewing this product. ● This ryuteki (Japanese flute) was given to me by an acquaintance, and I am listing it because I haven't used it much. I tried blowing into it a little, and although the bore is slender, the walls are thick, giving it a wide range of sound, and I felt it resonated well from high to low notes. I would like to offer it to someone who is interested in this flute and will cherish it. Please understand that this is a used item. 【Origin of the Ryuteki】 The "ryu" in ryuteki (dragon flute) has been associated with connecting heaven and earth since ancient times, and the ryuteki, the instrument using that character, has been cherished as an instrument that connects heaven and earth. Also, the inside of the tube is painted vermilion, and vermilion is the color of reviving life, and the ryuteki is said to be an instrument that revives life. I hope you will pick up and play this instrument, which is imbued with such thoughts. ● Please feel free to ask any questions in the comments. We sincerely look forward to your consideration.
